Non-insulin-based insulin resistance indexes in predicting atrial fibrillation recurrence following ablation: a retrospective study
Authors' conclusion
TyG index, METS-IR, and TyG-BMI index were independently associated with AF recurrence following ablation. Among the four non-insulin-based IR indexes, TyG-BMI had the highest predictive value, followed by METS-IR.
