Researchers examined 25,082 adults and found a significant association between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and fragility fractures. Higher TyG levels increased fracture risk. A nomogram, including TyG, predicted fracture risk effectively. A positive linear relationship existed between TyG and fractures. TyG may serve as a predictive marker for fragility fractures, emphasizing the need for improved risk assessment.
