Association between high triglyceride-glucose index and MACCE in hypertriglyceridemia patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

ABSTRACT:

Background

With a focus on metabolism-related cardiovascular diseases, the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been used as a surrogate marker of insulin resistance in the prognosis of coronary heart disease. However, the prognostic role of the TyG index in patients with elevated triglycerides, still requires further research. This study aimed to investigate the association between the TyG index and Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE) in patients with hypertriglyceridemia undergoing drug-eluting stent percutaneous coronary intervention (DES-PCI).

Methods

Out of 2250 patients, 813 with hypertriglyceridemia who underwent DES-PCI were retrospectively analyzed. MACCE was regarded as the primary endpoint. Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves were used to evaluate the as
