ABSTRACT: The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and the Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) are both predictors of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). However, their combined and individual contributions to CVD risk are not well understood. This study evaluate the joint and individual associations of the TyG index and AIP with CVD events in middle-aged and older Chinese adults. This nationwide, retrospective cohort study utilized data from CHARLS. The diagnosis of CVD in this study was determined based on self-reported information provided by participants regarding their medical history( heart disease and/or stroke).
