High triglyceride-glucose index is associated with early recurrent ischemic lesion in acute ischemic stroke

Abstract The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been associated with various metabolic, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular diseases. We evaluated the association between the TyG index and early recurrent ischemic lesions (ERILs) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). We included consecutiv...
