Heart artery blockage study with triglyceride-glucose index
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older
- You are scheduled for a heart catheterization (coronary angiography)
- You are not overweight (body mass index below 30)
- You do not have atrial fibrillation, asthma, or lung hypertension
- You are not pregnant, anemic, or have cancer or rheumatoid arthritis
- You do not have a pacemaker or peripheral artery disease

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how a specific heart rhythm measurement relates to the presence of extra blood vessels that form around a completely blocked artery. It may help doctors understand how well the heart is compensating for blockages.
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 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 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.
This study examines whether a simple blood test measuring blood sugar and fat levels (the triglyceride-glucose index) can predict future heart problems in people who have had a heart attack without blocked arteries. The goal is to find better ways to monitor and treat these patients.
This study looks at whether a simple blood test (triglyceride glucose index) can help predict how well blocked heart arteries are opened after a heart attack treated with emergency angioplasty. It may help doctors better understand recovery and future risks.
