Association between triglyceride-glucose index and its composite obesity indexes and cardio-renal disease: analysis of the NHANES 2013-2018 cycle.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The association between triglyceride-glucose (TYG) and its composite obesity indexes and cardio-renal disease in the American population remains insufficiently researched.

Methods

This study examined a cohort of 11,491 American adults aged 20 years and older from the 2003-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). To explore the associations between TYG, TyG-Waist-to-Height Ratio (TyG-WHtR), TyG-Body Mass Index (TyG-BMI), TyG-Waist Circumference (TyG-WC), and chronic kidney disease (CKD), cardiovascular disease (CVD), and cardiorenal syndrome (CRS), we utilized weighted multivariate logistic regression, restricted cubic spline (RCS), Receiver operating characteristic (ROC), and subgroup analyses.

Results

Adjusted for confounding factors
