Abstract Background: Triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is considered a reliable alternative marker of insulin resistance and an independent predictor of cardiovascular outcomes. However, the prognostic value of TyG index in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains unclear. Methods: A total of 1932 consecutive patients with T2DM and AMI were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into tertiles according to their TyG index levels. The incidences of major adverse cardiac and cerebral events (MACCEs), including all-cause death, non-fatal MI, non-fatal stroke, cardiac rehospitalization and revascularization, were recorded. The TyG index was calculated as the ln [fasting triglycerides (mg/dL) ×fasting plasma glucose (mg/dL)/2].Results: Kaplan-Meier curves showed that the incidences of cardiac rehospitalization (p=0.001), revascularization (p<0.001) and composite MACCEs (p=0.027) increased with TyG index tertiles. Multivariable Cox regression models revealed that the TyG index was positively associated with all-cause death, cardiovascular death, cardiac rehospitalization, revascularization and composite MACCEs. The addition of TyG index to a baseline risk model had an incremental effect on the predictive value for composite MACCEs [AUC: 0.663 vs. 0.708, p<0.001].Conclusions: The TyG index was significantly associated with MACCEs, suggesting that the TyG index may be a valid marker for risk stratification and prognosis in patients with T2DM and AMI.Trial registration: retrospectively registered

Annotation. Today, diseases of the cardiovascular system retain their leading position among the incidence in the world. The presence of comorbid pathology in the form of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) significantly complicates the course of these diseases, worsening its prognosis. The aim of the study: to analyze the prognostic value of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) as a marker of recurrent cardiovascular events in patients with acute myocardial infarction with type 2 diabetes for 6 months of follow-up. 120 patients were examined: group 1 – patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in combination with type 2 diabetes mellitus (n=70), group 2 - patients with isolated AMI (n=50). The control group included 20 practically healthy individuals. All patients underwent general clinical and instrumental examinations, on the first day of AMI the level of ADMA was determined using a commercial test system "Human Asymmetrical Dimethylarginine ELISA". Statistical processing of the obtained data was performed using the software package StatSoft Inc, USA – "Statistica 6.0". The analysis of the average level of ADMA showed a significantly higher value of this indicator in patients with AMI in combination with type 2 DM than in patients without concomitant type 2 DM 2.57 times (1.57±0.11 μmol / l and 0.61±0.06 μmol / l, respectively), (p<0,05. ADMA level >1,72 μmol / l in patients with AMI in combination with type 2 DM and >0,69 μmol / l in patients with AMI without concomitant type 2 DM was identified as a predictor of recurrent acute myocardial infarction within 6 months of follow-up. Thus, the level of ADMA was higher in the presence of comorbid pathology in the form of type 2 DM in patients with AMI, reflecting endothelial dysfunction combining disease. It is advisable to further study this indicator of endothelial dysfunction as a predictor of the adverse course of AMI in combination with concomitant type 2 DM.
