The role of TyG index in predicting low left ventricular ejection fraction after acute coronary syndrome.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimsThis study aimed to investigate whether triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and other clinical and demographic parameters are associated with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) following an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) event. METHODS &
resultsThis retrospective cohort study included patients hospitalized with a diagnosis of ACS. The TyG index was calculated using the formula: TyG = ln [fasting triglycerides (mg/dL) × fasting glucose (mg/dL)/2]. A total of 2,135 patients were included in the study (mean age: 57.49 ± 11.45 years, 78.64% male). Multivariable logistic regression revealed that mildly reduced or reduced LVEF was associated with immigrant population (
conclusionsThe TyG index shows potential as an independent risk factor for low LVEF after ACS.However, its relatively low sensitivity and specificity suggest that it may have a supportive role in risk stratification. Further research is needed to confirm its utility as a reliable prognostic marker for heart failure in ACS patients.
