Association between triglyceride-glucose index and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in US adults: A cohort study.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality, and to assess age differences. We analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999-2018), which included 101,316 participants. Restricted cubic spline and Cox regression models were used to examine the relationship between the TyG index and mortality rates in a sample of adult patients in the United States, age analysis was performed. Subgroup analysis was performed to evaluate potential differences in the relationship between the TyG index and mortality rates in different subgroups. The final analysis included 21,959 individuals. Observed were 3269 all-cause mortalities and 846 cardiovascular mortalities. E
