Fig. 3From: Association between triglyceride glucose index and atherosclerotic plaques and Burden: findings from a community-based study Bar charts of atherosclerotic burden of concordance/discordance groups Distribution of intracranial atherosclerotic burden(A), extracranial atherosclerotic burden(B), and Segment stenosis score(C) in accordance and discordance groups HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance; TyG, the triglyceride glucose index The intracranial atherosclerosis burden was graded according to the sum of intracranial atherosclerosis scores, including 0, 1, 2–3 and ≥ 4 scores The extracranial atherosclerosis burden was graded according to the sum of extracranial atherosclerosis scores, including 0, 1, 2–3 and ≥ 4 scores Segment stenosis score, the total number of segments with any plaque was graded: 0, 1–3, and ≥ 4 scoresBack to article page
