Insulin Resistance Screening (TyG Index)
Looking for an easy way to test and monitor your Insulin Resistance Screening (TyG Index)?
It's included in the HealthieOne Complete test.
Insulin Resistance Screening (TyG Index)
Explanation: TyG Index is a calculation that combines two blood test results: triglycerides (blood fats) and glucose (blood sugar).
Test purpose:
- Evaluating insulin resistance and cardiometabolic risk: elevated TyG index increases risk of cardiometabolic conditions.
- The TyG index has demonstrated comparable or even superior efficacy to traditional markers like HOMA-IR in forecasting cardiometabolic outcomes, positioning it as a valuable tool for risk assessment.
Note: Universal clinical reference ranges have not been established for this calculated marker. Available cutoffs vary by population and clinical context. This value should be interpreted alongside individual component values, clinical history, and other relevant biomarkers.
