The atherogenic index of plasma is associated with an increased risk of diabetes in non-obese adults: a cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aims to investigate the relationship between the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and diabetes risk in Chinese non-obese adults. This is important because the incidence of diabetes is significant in non-obese populations, and evidence regarding this association is limited.

Methods

We conducted a retrospective cohort study with 82,977 Chinese non-obese adults. We used Cox proportional hazards regression to assess the relationship between baseline AIP levels and diabetes incidence. We also employed cubic spline functions and smooth curve fitting to investigate potential nonlinear relationships. Sensitivity and subgroup analyses were conducted to validate our findings.

Results

The median follow-up duration for these participants was 3.10 years, duri
