KIVRAK, Ahmet y YILDIRIM, Alp. Predictive Performance of Triglyceride-Glucose Index on Asymptomatic Multiple Organ Damage in Patients with Newly Diagnosed Hypertension. Rev. invest. clín.[online]. 2023, vol. 75, n. 5, pp. 221-232. Epub 12-Mar-2024. ISSN 2564-8896. https://doi. org/10.24875/ric. 23000113.Background:Insulin resistance (IR) contributes to the development of hypertension and mediated organ damage (HMOD) through various mechanisms.Objectives:The objective of the study was to assess the diagnostic performance of the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a surrogate marker of IR, in predicting the presence and severity of HMOD in newly diagnosed untreated hypertensive patients from an academic training and research hospital.Methods:The study included 438 patients with newly diagnosed, untreated hypertension. The control group comprised normotensive individuals matched on a 1: 1 ratio based on age, gender, body mass index, and smoking using the nearest neighbor method. The presence of HMOD was defined by renal damage (microalbuminuria> 30 mg/day or proteinuria> 150 mg/day), vascular damage (carotid intima-media thickness> 0.9 mm or presence of plaque), or cardiac damage (left ventricular mass index> 95 g/m2 in women and> 115 g/m2 in men). The severity of HMOD was considered as single-, two-, or triple-organ damage.Results:TyG index values were higher in the hypertensive group than the normotensive group. An increased TyG index was independently associated with HMOD (OR: 1.33, p< 0.001). The TyG index exhibited gradually increasing threshold values for distinguishing patients …
