Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a life-threatening disease with high morbidity and mortality. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a marker of insulin resistance (IR), has been linked to adverse outcomes in cerebrovascular conditions; however, its influence on functional prognosis in aSAH remains unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the relationship between the TyG index and functional outcomes in aSAH patients.
A retrospective cohort study included consecutive aSAH patients. Functional outcomes were assessed using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 3 months and categorized as favorable (mRS 0-2) or unfavorable (mRS 3-6). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyzed the association between the TyG index and functional outcomes. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to mitigate confounding. Non-linear relationships were explored with restricted cubic splines (RCS), and subgroup analyses were performed. A nomogram integrating the TyG index and traditional prognostic scales was developed, and model predictive performance was compared using the area under the curve (AUC) on a test set.
A total of 470 patients (61.7% female) were enrolled, with 154 experiencing unfavorable outcomes. Multivariate logistic regression showed a significant association between the TyG index and adverse outcomes (OR: 1.86, 95% CI 1.12-3.1, P = 0.017). An optimal TyG index cutoff of 8.83 was identified. Patients with TyG index ≥ 8.83 had a higher risk of poor outcomes (48.7% vs. 24.8%; P = 0.015). PSM confirmed these findings. RCS indicated a progressive association between elevated TyG index and increased risk of adverse functional outcome. Subgroup analyses showed consistent relationships. The enhanced model with the TyG index had a higher AUC (0.899) than the traditional model (0.889, DeLong test P = 0.048).
A high TyG index is significantly associated with an increased risk of unfavorable functional outcomes in patients with aSAH.
动脉瘤性蛛网膜下腔出血(aSAH)是一种危及生命的疾病,发病率和死亡率都很高。甘油三酯-葡萄糖(TyG)指数作为胰岛素抵抗(IR)的一个指标,已被证明与脑血管疾病的不良预后相关;然而,其对aSAH患者功能预后的影响仍不清楚。本研究旨在阐明TyG指数与aSAH患者功能预后之间的关系。
一项回顾性队列研究纳入了连续的aSAH患者。在3个月时使用改良Rankin量表(mRS)评估功能预后,并分为良好(mRS 0-2)或不良(mRS 3-6)。单因素和多因素逻辑回归分析TyG指数与功能预后之间的关联。采用倾向评分匹配(PSM)来减轻混杂因素的影响。使用受限立方样条(RCS)探索非线性关系,并进行亚组分析。开发了一个整合TyG指数和传统预后量表的列线图,并在测试集上使用曲线下面积(AUC)比较模型的预测性能。
共纳入470例患者(61.7%为女性),其中154例预后不良。多因素逻辑回归显示TyG指数与不良预后之间存在显著关联(OR:1.86,95%CI 1.12-3.1,P = 0.017)。确定最佳TyG指数临界值为8.83。TyG指数≥8.83的患者预后不良风险更高(48.7%对24.8%;P = 0.015)。PSM证实了这些发现。RCS表明TyG指数升高与不良功能预后风险增加之间存在渐进关联。亚组分析显示了一致的关系。包含TyG指数的增强模型的AUC(0.899)高于传统模型(0.889,DeLong检验P = 0.048)。
高TyG指数与aSAH患者不良功能预后风险增加显著相关。
