Precision health relies on the ability to assess disease risk at an individual level, detect early
preclinical conditions and initiate preventive strategies. Recent technological advances in …

Background: The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been reported to be a simple and
reliable surrogate marker of insulin resistance. The aim of this study was to investigate …

Background and aims Cardiac structural and functional changes have been demonstrated in
patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Because of the frequent association …

Background Insulin resistance carries increased risk of heart failure, although the
pathophysiological mechanisms remain unclear. LV global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) …

Objective Hyperglycaemia in type 2 diabetes is caused by varying degrees of two defects:
low insulin sensitivity and beta-cell dysfunction. We assessed if subgrouping of patients into …

Insulin resistance plays a key role in cardiovascular complications associated with diabetes
mellitus and hypertensive disorders. In states of insulin resistance several circulating factors …

Background This study aimed to investigate the association between the triglyceride–
glucose (TyG) index and left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) in patients with …

Background The liver fat score (LFS) has been proposed to be a simple non-invasive marker
of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which is highly prevalent in the general …

Background and aim Insulin resistance (IR) is associated with a higher rate of type 1
diabetes (T1D) complications. We aimed to examine the relationship between estimated …

Background The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a simple and reliable marker of insulin
resistance and is closely associated with various cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). However …
