DR was assessed using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study criteria. The TyG index was calculated: Ln (fasting blood glucose [mg/dL] × fasting triglycerides [mg/dL] ÷ 2). Multivariate logistic regression, a receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve, linear regression models, and mediation analysis were used to explore associations.Results: The TyG index was lower in DR and decreased as its severity advanced among 2,112 subjects (P=0.005). After confounders (sex, duration of diabetes, use of antidiabetic agents, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, pulse pressure, height, weight, body-mass index, and glycated hemoglobin) had been accounted for, there were significant associations between the TyG index and any-severity DR (OR 0.83, 95% CI 0.73– 0.95; P=0.006), as well as vision-threatening DR (VTDR; OR 0.53, 95% CI 0.36– 0.76; P=0.001). ROC analysis indicated that the TyG index showed significant discriminatory ability in any-severity DR (area under curve [AUC] 0.534, P=0.015) and VTDR (AUC 0.624, P=0.001).Conclusion: The TyG index was associated with the presence and severity of DR. Our findings suggest that the TyG index may become a useful biomarker in evaluating and following the presence of DR and VTDR.Keywords: diabetic retinopathy, triglyceride–glucose index, type 2 diabetes, hospital-based nested case–control studyYao LWang XZhong YWang YWu JGeng JZhou YChen JGuan PXu YChen LLiu LHu YDove Medical Pressarticlediabetic retinopathytriglyceride-glucose indextype 2 diabeteshospital based nested case-control studySpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 14, Pp 1547-1555 (2021) |
