Association between the TyG index (independent variable) and the risk of developing cardiovascular disease in ten years assessed by the Framingham score (dependent variable) in individuals at cardiometabolic risk (n = 264).

TyG index tertiles	Framingham risk score classification
	Lowest risk	Intermediate/Highest Risk

Lowest TyG	1 (Ref)	1 (Ref)
Highest TyG		2.63 (1.54–4.46)	1.69 (1.03 – 2.78)

Prevalence ratio data (95%CI) based on Poisson regression with robust variance.

Model 1: crude.

Model 2: adjusted by sex, age, diabetes, high blood pressure and physical activity.
