The relationship of serum klotho levels and triglyceride glucose index-related indicators.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Klotho, an anti-aging protein, is linked to energy metabolism. There is limited research on the association of serum klotho and triglyceride glucose (TyG) index-related indicators. Our research aims to investigate the relationship of serum klotho with TyG-BMI (body mass index), TyG-WC (waist circumference), and TyG-WHtR (waist-to-height ratio).

Methods

From 2007 to 2016, we examined 6,370 participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was utilized to measure serum klotho. We calculated the TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, and TyG-WHtR based on fasting triglycerides, fasting glucose, BMI, WC, and WHtR. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the association of serum klotho with TyG-BMI,
