No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is a novel marker, which has been demonstrated to have a high sensitivity and specificity in identifying metabolic syndrome . Previous studies have shown that TyG index is associated with carotid atherosclerosis, coronary artery calcification and high risk of CVD.

This study aims to predict severity of CAD using TyG index and its correlation to coronary angiography findings.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

triglyceride glucose index

The TyG index was calculated using the following equation: Ln \[TG (mg/dL)×FPG (mg/dL) / 2\]. CAD was referred to as at least one major coronary artery with≥50% stenosis evaluated by CAG
