Description
Lina Chen and co-authors present a 2026 retrospective study of a metabolic risk index in people living with both HIV and coronary artery disease. The TyG index combines triglycerides and glucose into one number. The team asked whether it forecasts major cardiovascular events in this high-risk group.
Just over a hundred patients from one center were followed for up to about four years. Those who suffered major events had clearly higher index values at baseline. Each small rise in the index carried a sizable rise in event risk after adjustment. The top index groups faced several-fold higher risk than the lowest. Prediction accuracy for events at one and three years was fair to good. Non-smokers showed the strongest link.
