ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is regarded as a reliable alternative indicator for measuring insulin resistance. We investigated the association between the prognosis of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)and the TyG index, explored the potential of the TyG index as a new biomarker for forecasting the outcomes of SAH patients, and explored independent risk factors for predicting the condition of SAH patients.METHODS:
A retrospective analysis was performed of patients who were admitted to a single center due to SAH. Differences in clinical data and correlation between laboratory indexes, disease severity score on admission, and prognosis score were compared between the 2 groups. The study employed multivariate logistic regression analysis to examine the independent influencing aspects of Glasgow Outcome Scale score. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn and the area under the curve (AUC) calculated to predict the best cutoff value of the degree of neurological impairment in patients with SAH.RESULTS:
Univariate analysis showed that Glasgow Coma Scale score (86.3% vs. 12.0%, P < 0.001), Hunt-Hess grade (88.2% vs. 15.7%, P < 0.001), white blood cell count (11.20 [7.9, 15.2] vs. 9.1 [7.0, 12.2], P = 0.027), and TyG index (1.49 [1.40, 1.59] vs. 1.16 [1.06, 1.27], P < 0.001) were statistically significantly different. Multivariate analysis showed that TyG index, Hunt-Hess grade, and GCS score were independent risk factors for poor prognosis.CONCLUSIONS:
Patients with SAH may benefit from using the TyG index as a predictive method. In our clinical practice, the TyG index is beneficial for managing diseases and making decisions. More research is required to determine if improved TyG index control would lead to better clinical results in the future.Key words
