ALB and chronic kidney disease: The TyG index was calculated as Ln (triglycerides (mg/dl) * fasting glucose (mg/dl)/2). The two criteria used to diagnose CKD were low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m<sup>2</sup>) or albuminuria (urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) ≥ 30 mg/g).
