  1. Patients were divided into three groups according to the tertile of TyG index: tertile 1, < 8.48; tertile 2, 8.48–9.01; and tertile 3, > 9.01
  2. MACE indicates major adverse cardiovascular events; TyG, triglyceride-glucose
  3. aAdjusted for age, sex, body mass index, hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation, chronic heart failure, current smoking, excessive alcohol, and etiologic subtype of index event
