Comparison analysis of the triglyceride-glucose index, triglyceride-glucose and frailty index in cardiovascular disease and mortality association among patients with rheumatoid arthritis

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of excess mortality among patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Conventional risk assessment may not fully capture the metabolic abnormalities and physiological vulnerability associated with RA. We investigated whether the triglyceride-glucose–frailty index (TyG-FI), whi...
