Abstract
BACKGROUND: Surrogate insulin resistance (IR) indices are simpler and more practical alternatives to insulin-based IR indicators for clinical use. This study explored the association between surrogate IR indices, including triglyceride-glucose index (TyG), triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI), triglyceride glucose-waist circumference (TyG-WC), triglyceride glucose-waist to height ratio (TyG-WHtR), metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR), and the triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio, and coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
