ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, a novel surrogate indicator for insulin resistance (IR), is believed to be associated with various diseases. However, its connection with cognitive decline remains controversy.METHODS:
The PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Medline databases were systematically searched up to October 2023 to assess the association between the TyG index and the risk of cognitive decline. Effect estimates and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a random-effects model.RESULTS:
Our review included 3 cohort studies and 9 case-control/cross-sectional studies with a total of 5,603,350 participants. In comparison to a low TyG index, a higher TyG index was connected to an elevated risk of cognitive decline (RR/HR = 1.14, 95 % CI [1.11, 1.17], P < 0.05; OR = 1.75, 95 % CI [1.34, 2.29], P < 0.05). Furthermore, the dose-response analysis from the case-control/cross-sectional studies revealed a 1.42 times higher risk of cognitive decline per 1 mg/dl increment of the TyG index (OR = 1.42, 95 % CI [1.19, 1.69], P < 0.05).LIMITATIONS:
The inclusion of observational studies in the meta-analysis demonstrated a lower hierarchy of evidence compared to randomized controlled trials. Moreover, we incorporated a restricted number of studies and identified significant heterogeneity among them, potentially attributed to the presence of numerous confounding variables.CONCLUSION:
TyG index is related to cognitive decline. In view of some of the limitations of this study, further research will be necessary to confirm this relationship.Palavras-chave
