Predictive value of atherogenic index of plasma in combination with diagonal earlobe crease in coronary heart disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and diagonal earlobe crease (DELC) are correlated with the incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD). Nevertheless, the role of AIP and DELC in the characterization and prediction of CHD remains underexplored.

Methods

This study enrolled a total of 1,378 patients suspected to be indicative of CHD, all of whom were admitted to Chengde Central Hospital between September 2021 and August 2024. Based on coronary angiography (CAG), the cohort was stratified into two groups: the CHD group (n = 1,071) and the non-CHD group (n = 307). Multivariate logistic analysis was used to analyze the interplay of AIP, DELC, and CHD. The predictive value of AIP and DELC for CHD was evaluated by nomogram, calibration curves, and receiv
