  1. CI confidence interval, HR hazard ratio, TyG triglyceride glucose
  2. *High TyG index was defined as TyG index ≥ 8.83
  3. Model 1, adjusted for age and sex at baseline
  4. Model 2, adjusted for variables in model 1 plus level of education, income, smoking, alcohol abuse, physical activity, and BMI at baseline
  5. Model 3, adjusted for variables in model 2 plus SBP, DBP, a history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia, antidiabetic drugs, lipid-lowering drugs, antihypertensive drugs, HDL-C, LDL-C, and hs-CRP at baseline
  6. Sensitivity analysis was adjusted for variables in model 3 and further excluded all deaths during the follow-up visits
