Table 2 Correlation analysis of TyG index with renal function and metabolic factor.

TyG	r	P value
UA	0.164^#	<0.001
Cre	0.075	0.051
eGFR	−0.018	0.639
UACR	0.172^#	<0.001
LDL	0.277^#	<0.001
HDL	−0.269^#	<0.001
ALT	0.184^#	<0.001
ALB	0.102^*	0.008
DKD – diabetic kidney disease; TyG – triglyceride-glucose index; UA – uric acid; Cre – creatinine; eGFR – estimated glomerular filtration rate; UACR – urine albumin creatinine ratio; LDL-C – low-density lipoprotein; HDL – high-density lipoprotein; ALT – alanine aminotransferase; ALB – albumin. ^* ^#
