Authors' conclusion

TyG-BMI index was significantly associated with a higher risk of progression to non-severe AS. TyG-BMI index, as an effective alternative indicator of IR, can identify people at high risk of AS progression at an early stage of the disease, thereby improving the prognosis and reducing the socio-economic burden.
