Objective: To evaluate the impact of the triglyceride-glucose index(TyG index) and obesity indicators on the risk of hypertension among the elderly in Nanjing. Methods: Using the chronic disease and risk factor surveillance data collected in Nanjing from 2017 to 2018, focusing on the 7 362 participants aged 60 and above, all participants were divided into 4 groups according to the quartile of the TyG index. TyG index<8.205 was the Q1 group, 8.205≤TyG index<8.538 was the Q2 group, 8.538≤TyG index<8.892 was the Q3 group, and the TyG index ≥8.892 was the Q4 group.The effect of the TyG index and obesity indicators on hypertension was analyzed using a multilevel Logistic regression model. The receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve was employed to assess the predictive role of the TyG index and other obesity indicators on the risk of developing hypertension. Results: After adjusting for variables including age, gender, region, education level, marital status, smoking, drinking, physical activity, salt intake, and family history, the risk of hypertension was higher in Q2, Q3, and Q4 group than that of Q1 group, the odds ratios(OR) were 1.265(95%CI 1.089-1.470), 1.397(95%CI 1.208-1.616), and 1.730(95%CI 1.495-2.002), respectively. The risk of hypertension in the group with excessive body mass index(BMI), waist circumference(WC), waist to hip ratio(WHR), and waist to height ratio(WHtR) was also higher than that in the non excessive group, with OR were 1.979(95%CI 1.792-2.185), 1.843 (95%CI 1.657-2.049), 1.267(95%CI 1.144-1.403) and 1.838(95%CI 1.660-2.035), respectively. Participants were divided into four subgroups by TyG index and obesity indicators respectively, compared with the lower level of both variables, one variable with high level or both of them with high level, the risk of hypertension increased, and the differences were significant(P<0.01). The AUC for predicting the risk of hypertension were higher when combining TyG with BMI(0.572), TyG with WC(0.564), and TyG with WHtR(0.567) than that of TyG index alone(0.532). Conclusion: In the elderly of the Nanjing area, the risk of developing hypertension increases with the rise in the level of the TyG index. The TyG index may have significant predictive value for the risk of hypertension, and it has a combined effect with obesity indicators on the risk of developing hypertension. |
