Table 6.

C-index of TyG for predicting all-cause and cardiovascular death in FH patients

Models C-statistic (95% CI) * p value
All-cause death
 Original model ** 0.489 (0.437–0.542) Ref
 Original model + TyG 0.483 (0.432–0.535) 0.042
Cardiovascular death
 Original model 0.408 (0.324–0.491) Ref
 Original model + TyG 0.397 (0.315–0.479) 0.042

*The C-index was calculated by using the predict.coxph function to predict the Cox model with predicted value type = "survival"

**Original model included age, gender, BMI, smoke, drink, HOMA-IR, LDL-C, creatinine and hypertension
