Abstract
Abstract Background The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index has been considered a new biomarker for the diagnosis of angiocardiopathy and insulin resistance. However, the association of the TyG index with subclinical left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction still lacks comprehensive exploration. This study was carried out to examine this relationship in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods A total of 150 T2DM patients with preserved LV ejection fraction (LVEF ≥ 50%) from June 2021 to December 2021 were included in this study. The subclinical LV function was evaluated through global longitudinal strain (GLS), with the predefined GLS 9.83) n = 37) were conducted. A negative correlation of the TyG index with GLS (r = -0.307, P
