The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a validated IR surrogate, but existing evidence is mostly limited to cross-sectional data or single-source databases, failing to clarify the longitudinal progression of renal injury and underlying mechanisms.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study integrated two independent prospective cohorts: the national community-based CHARLS cohort (4,476 middle-aged and elderly participants, 2011\u20132015 follow-up) and a hospital-based KDIGO 2012-defined CKD cohort (396 patients, median 1,019-day follow-up). We analyzed the association of TyG index with eGFR decline (CHARLS) and ESRD (CJFH), with pulse pressure as mediator, hypertension as moderator, via regression, mediation, survival and nonlinear analyses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Elevated baseline TyG index was independently associated with renal function deterioration in both cohorts. Pulse pressure played a partial mediating role in this association, while baseline hypertension significantly amplified the adverse renal effect of TyG. The overall association was dominated by a negative linear trend with no significant risk threshold.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>TyG index is an independent risk factor for renal function deterioration, with its adverse effects partially mediated by elevated pulse pressure and amplified by hypertension.
