Association between the triglyceride-glucose index and acute kidney injury in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary: a retrospective analysis of the MIMIC-IV database.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication that affects the outcomes of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a metric computed from fasting blood triglyceride and glucose levels, is closely associated with poor PCI outcomes. This study examined the association between the TyG index and incidence of AKI in patients undergoing PCI.

Methods

Clinical information was obtained from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database, which contains clinical data on 70,000 patients admitted to the intensive care unit at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center from 2008 to 2019. In total, 435 patients who underwent PCI were enrolled in this retrospective study, and they were categorized according
