Associations between different triglyceride glucose index-related obesity indices and periodontitis: results from NHANES 2009-2014.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study aimed to explore the associations between triglyceride glucose (TyG) index-related obesity indices and periodontitis within the American population.

Methods

This cross-sectional investigation utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) for 2009-2014. The association between the TyG-waist-to-height ratio (TyG-WHtR), TyG-weight-adjusted-waist index (TyG-WWI), TyG-waist circumference (TyG-WC), or TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI) and periodontitis was investigated utilizing multivariable logistic regression model, subgroup, and dose-response curve analyses.

Results

This study enrolled 4,808 adult participants. Except for TyG-BMI, which did not exhibit a relationship with periodontitis, TyG-WHtR, [odds ratio (OR) (95%
