The triglyceride-glucose index is a predictor for cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in CVD patients with diabetes or pre-diabetes: evidence from NHANES 2001–2018

The association between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and mortality in cardiovascular disease (CVD) patients with diabetes or pre-diabetes remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between baseline TyG index and all-cause and cardiovascular (CV) mortality in CVD patients with diabetes or pre-diabetes among American adults. .
