    Higher quartiles of TyG-WC and TyG-WHtR were significantly associated with increased liver-related event risk among type 2 diabetes patients.

  • 3

    No significant associations were found between TyG and TyG-BMI with liver-related event risk in the studied population.

  • 4

    The associations between TyG-WC/TyG-WHtR and liver-related events were stronger in high-risk groups, including excessive alcohol consumers.

  • 5

    TyG-WC and TyG-WHtR may serve as practical tools for identifying and stratifying liver-related event risk in clinical practice.
