Experts examined 183 hemodialysis patients and found that a higher triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index significantly increased heart failure (HF) risk over a 57-month follow-up. Results indicated that patients with higher TyG had a 2.59-fold increased HF risk, even after adjusting for confounders. The TyG index showed a linear association with HF risk. TyG index may be useful in identifying hemodialysis patients at high risk for HF.
