Prognostic value of the triglyceride-glucose index in non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer: a retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Bladder carcinoma is a type of urological tumor with high risks of recurrence and progression. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has demonstrated significant promise as a prognostic marker for metabolic health in different types of cancer. Further research is needed to explore the relationships among non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), the TyG index, and its prognostic importance. Purpose of this preliminary research is to assess the predictive significance of the TyG index for recurrence and progression risk in NMIBC patients.

Methods

Data from patients admitted between October 2018 and July 2021 were reviewed, and there are 198 patients in total were included. The experimental data were supplied by medical records. In addition, patient prognoses were
