Triglyceride glucose index in premature heart disease patients
Part of Heart & circulation, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies whether a simple blood test called the triglyceride glucose index can help doctors understand heart artery disease in younger patients who do not have diabetes. It may lead to better ways to assess heart risk and guide treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You do not have diabetes (no history of diabetes, your average blood sugar over 3 months is below 6.5%, and your fasting blood sugar is below 126 mg/dL).
- You have been diagnosed with heart artery disease by a special X-ray called coronary angiography.
- You have not had any previous heart procedures like stents or bypass surgery.
- You do not have severe liver or kidney problems.
- You are not currently taking medicines to lower your triglycerides.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how a simple blood test measure (the triglyceride glucose index) relates to the severity of blockages in heart arteries. It may help doctors understand risk better, especially for people undergoing a heart catheterization.
This study looks at a simple blood test marker (the TyG index) to see if it can predict how severe your coronary artery disease is. You may qualify if you are an adult with a recent heart attack or stable heart disease and are scheduled for an angiogram.
This study follows people to understand heart disease risk by combining a heart risk score with genetic risk (polygenic risk). It may help improve how doctors identify who is at higher risk and could guide prevention planning.
This study looks at whether testosterone levels are linked to how blocked the heart arteries are in young men (under 45) with early heart disease. It involves a one-time blood test during a planned cardiac catheterization.
This study looks at how fats in your blood after a meal (called triglycerides) might affect the buildup of plaque in your heart arteries. It is for people who have coronary artery disease but do not have diabetes or other major health problems like liver, kidney, or thyroid disease.
This trial is looking at how a simple blood test (triglyceride-glucose index) relates to complete blockages in heart arteries. It may help find people at higher risk without extra procedures.
