Abstract
Triglyceride-Glucose (TyG) is an emerging surrogate indicator of insulin resistance. We explored the role of TyG in development of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and elucidated the mechanism for the relationship.4109 subjects without baseline T2DM participated in a community screening programme in 2013-2016. TyG was calculated as Ln[fasting triglyceride level (mg/dl) × fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (mg/dl)/2]. Outcome was T2DM defined as FPG ≥...
