Popis:	Abstract Background Age is a major risk factor associated with the complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD), and the prognosis of elderly patients with coronary heart disease is relatively poor. Metabolic disturbances are prevalent in the elderly population and contribute to CAD morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and total coronary atherosclerotic burden assessed non-invasively by Coronary Computed Tomography Angiogram (CCTA) in the elderly population. Methods This retrospective cross-sectional study involved 427 patients who underwent CCTA. The patients were divided into two groups based on their Leiden score: ≥5 and
