Triglyceride-glucose index is associated with poor prognosis in acute coronary syndrome patients with prior coronary artery bypass grafting undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2023
Background The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, which is a reliable substitute indicator for insulin resistance, has been considered an independent risk factor for long-term outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease.

Limitations of adjustment for reporting tendency in observational studies of stress and self reported coronary heart disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Recently, observational evidence has been suggested to show a causal association between various "psychosocial" exposures, including psychological stress, and heart disease. Much of this evidence derives from studies in which a self reported psychosocial

Low triiodothyronine syndrome and selenium deficiency - undervalued players in advanced heart failure? A single center pilot study

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2019
Background The function of deiodinases – selenoproteins converting thyroid hormones may be disturbed by oxidative stress accompanying heart failure. Selenium (Se) may be used by glutathione peroxidase, leading to a lack of deiodinase and triiodothyronine

Influence of the Triglyceride-Glucose Index on Adverse Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Events in Prediabetic Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
BackgroundCardiovascular disease and insulin resistance are closely related. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is frequently used as an indicator of insulin resistance. However, there is scant information on the TyG index in the prediabetic population,

Low adiponectin levels are an independent predictor of mixed and non-calcified coronary atherosclerotic plaques. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Atherosclerosis is the primary cause of coronary artery disease (CAD). There is increasing recognition that lesion composition rather than size determines the acute complications of atherosclerotic disease.

Oxidative Stress–Related Genome-Wide Mendelian Randomization Identifies Causal Genes for Coronary Artery Disease

open access: yesCardiovascular Therapeutics
Although oxidative stress (OS) links to the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD), its underlying genetic mechanisms remain unclear. Through summary data–based Mendelian randomization (SMR) and colocalization, this research seeks to assess the ...
