Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the association between triglyceride-glucose(TyG) index level, their variability, and the risk of incident hyperuricemia(HUA).Methods:A total of 1 583 cases with good compliance who underwent follow-up at the health examination center of a tertiary hospital physical in Zhengzhou were enrolled. The TyG index mean(TyG-mean) and variability indexes, including standard deviation(TyG-SD), coefficient of variation(TyG-CV), and adjusted standard deviation(adj-TyG-SD), were calculated based on TyG index values from three consecutive annual health check-ups. Cox proportional risk regression model was used to assess the relationship between the variability of TyG index and the risk of new-onset HUA; the dose-response relationship between different TyG indexes and HUA was examined using restricted cubic spline(RCS). Results:After a 3-year follow-up, 146 participants developed incident HUA. Both TyG-mean and TyG index variability indicators were significantly higher in the HUA group compared to the non-HUA group( P<0.05). After adjusting for multiple confounders, each standard deviation σincrease in TyG-SD, TyG-CV, and adj-TyG-SD was associated with a 1.23-fold(95% CI 1.06-1.43), 1.22-fold(95% CI 1.05-1.42), and 1.26-fold(95% CI 1.08-1.45) higher risk of incident HUA, respectively. RCS analysis revealed a nonlinear association between adj-TyG-SD and HUA risk( P<0.05), with a critical threshold of 0.55 at a hazard ratio( HR) of 1. Conclusions:Increased TyG index variability is associated with a higher risk of incident HUA, with adj-TyG-SD showing the strongest correlation with HUA risk.
