TL;DR

The triglyceride‐glucose (TyG) index has shown predictive value for Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular events (CVEs) in the general population, but its utility in PWH remains unclear.

Abstract

People living with HIV (PWH) are at increased risk for metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. However, there is no structured prevention strategy for these subjects. The triglyceride‐glucose (TyG) index has shown predictive value for Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular events (CVEs) in the general population, but its utility in PWH remains unclear.

The Association Between Atherogenic Index of Plasma and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in a Multi‐Ethnic Population of Premature Coronary Artery Disease Patients: Insights From IPAD Study

The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a lipid‐based indicator of cardiometabolic risk. We examined whether AIP is associated with prevalent type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and fasting blood sugar (FBS) in patients with premature coronary artery disease (PCAD) and explored whether this association differed across Ira...

Free Fatty Acids and Sarcopenia Risk in Type 2 Diabetes: Insights From SHAP Analysis

Sarcopenia is a prevalent and disabling complication of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which significantly elevates the risks of falls, fractures, institutionalization, and all‐cause mortality. Lipotoxicity mediated by circulating free fatty acids (FFA) is crucial in the pathogenesis of diabetes‐related sarcopenia, b...

The additive value of coronary calcium in identifying cardiovascular risk in ageing people with HIV.

In people without HIV, raised coronary artery calcium scores (CACS) are linked to increased cardiovascular risk. HIV is associated with elevated CACS, but risk factors beyond smoking and diabetes are not well established. Data on 779 individuals with HIV who underwent a CACS scans (median age 55) were collected. CACS b...
