This investigation seeks to determine the triglyceride glucose (TyG) index's link to stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in American females of adult age.
The investigation relied on data acquired via the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted over the period from 2011 to 2018. The independent relationship between TyG index and SUI was tested using multivariate logistic regression analysis. We applied a smooth curve fitting approach to analyze the interrelation of them. In addition, subgroup analysis was conducted and interaction experiments were conducted.
Among 4459 female participants aged 20 and above, TyG index and SUI demonstrated a favorable correlation. Model 3 indicated that with every single-unit rise in the TyG index, the incidence of SUI increases by 18% [1.18 (1.01, 1.38)]. In contrast to individuals in the lowest tertile, subjects within the highest tertile of the TyG index exhibited a 68% increase in SUI incidence [1.68 (95% CI: 1.26, 2.23), 0.0004]. By using smooth curve fitting, a nonlinear positive evidence of an interconnection of the TyG index to SUI was identified.
Women exhibiting increased TyG index levels are at a heightened risk of SUI. TyG index displays a stronger correlation than that observed with BMI. According to our findings, the TyG index is viewed as a potential tool for identifying SUI in women, and monitoring the value of TyG index may be helpful for predicting the occurrence of SUI.
