Abstract

ABSTRACT Aims and Objective: To evaluate the association between Insulin Resistance & Myocardial Infarction using HOMA IR and TyG Index as a marker of Insulin Resistance. Materials and Method: This study was Baseline Cross sectional Observational study of 165 patients admitted with Myocardial Infarction between November 2022 and February 2024. Brief history was taken and baseline demographic details were noted. Fasting Blood sample was collected & HbA1c, TyG Index and HOMA IR, was estimated. Patients were divided into Diabetics and Non diabetics based on history & HbA1c. Results: The study's participant pool is predominantly male with the mean age of 55.39±11.48 years. Age is distributed equally between Diabetics and Non-Diabetics. Obese and overweight individuals contributed to 74.5% of the study participants with a mean BMI of 27.24±3.76 kg/m². The mean TyG index for Diabetics was 9.47±0.46, whereas for Non Diabetics it was 8.76±0.34 (P
