Abstract: The TyG index was evaluated as a surrogate method for estimation of insulin resistance (IR). TyG index correlated with adiposity, metabolic and atherosclerosis markers related to IR and presented a moderate degree of agreement with hyperglycemic clamp. TyG index represents an accessible tool for assessment of IR in clinical practice.

“…The TyG index value in the present investigation is in agreement with the majority of the reported adult literature , but higher than some others . Some investigators calculated the TyG index as a function of the log rather than the Ln (natural log) , which would explain the different numerical value for the index.…”

“…This correlation was similar between men and women, nonobese and obese, and nondiabetic and diabetic individuals. Another study in a Brazilian population supported this correlation [25]. The TyG index was also significantly correlated with insulin-stimulated glucose uptake measured as the steady-state plasma glucose concentration during insulin suppression testing [26], and was better associated with carotid atherosclerosis than HOMA-IR [27].…”

“…The TyG index was also significantly associated with the insulin‐stimulated glucose uptake measured as the steady‐state plasma glucose concentration during insulin suppression testing (correlation coefficient of 0·58) . Another study supported these findings and correlated TyG index with fat distribution and metabolic markers of subclinical atherosclerosis . Furthermore, another research project found that the TyG index was the best index in discriminating IR individuals, even compared with visceral adiposity indicators and other lipid parameters .…”
