Plasma atherogenicity index is a powerful indicator for identifying metabolic syndrome in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is an important risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Elevated triglyceride (TG) levels and decreased high-density lipoprotein levels (HDL-C) are predisposing factors for the development of ASCVD. Evidence on the association between atherosclerotic index of plasma [AIP = log (TG/HDL-C)] and MetS is limited. Our study aimed to investigate the association between AIP and MetS. This is a cross-sectional study that determines the presence of MetS by assessing anthropometric and biochemical parameters. Multivariate log-binomial regression models were used to analyze the relationship between AIP and MetS risk. To further test the stability of the results, we performed sensitivity analyses in young, non-obese, and normal lipid population. Smooth
