Association of triglyceride-glucose and obesity-derived indices with the risk of aortic stenosis among individuals in cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome stages 0-3: a prospective cohort study from the UK Biobank.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome emphasizes the interplay between metabolic dysfunction, kidney injury, and cardiovascular abnormalities. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) and its obesity-related derivatives have emerged as simple biomarkers for insulin resistance, yet their association with aortic stenosis (AS) risk in CKM syndrome stages 0-3 remains unclear. Methods: This prospective cohort study included 363,907 participants with CKM stages 0-3 from the UK Biobank. We calculated six TyG-related indices (TyG, TyG-BMI, TyG-Waist, TyG-WHR, TyG-WHtR, and TyG-ABSI) and evaluated their associations with incident AS using Cox proportional hazards and competing risk models. Mediation analysis assessed the role of systolic blood pressure (SBP), and incremental predictive value was evaluated using C-index and net reclassification index (NRI). Results: During 15.25 years of follow-up, 3,326 AS cases occurred. After full adjustment, each 1-SD increment in TyG-related indices was associated with 8-24% increased AS risk. Compared with the lowest tertile, the highest tertile showed 1.13-1.77-fold increased risk. All indices demonstrated linear dose-response relationships with AS. SBP mediated 12.1-18.1% of these associations. TyG-WHtR showed the greatest predictive improvement (C-index: 0.806; NRI: 0.308). Conclusions: TyG-related indices, particularly TyG-WHtR, are independently associated with AS risk in CKM syndrome stages 0-3, offering potential for early risk stratification and targeted prevention strategies.
