High atherogenic index of plasma in subclinical hypothyroidism: Implications in assessment of cardiovascular disease risk
BACKGROUND A controversy exists regarding the association between subclinical hypothyroidism (SH) and dyslipidemia. Moreover, studies on lipid ratios and atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) in SH are rare, particularly in the Indian scenario. AIM This study aimed to investigate abnormalities in conventional lipid profile, lipid ratios, and AIP in SH and attempted to correlate thyroid stimulatin...
متن کاملAtherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP): A marker of cardiovascular disease
Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the cause of one third of deaths worldwide and this will progress because of increasing CVD's risk factors. The most basic task of dealing with the epidemic of CVD is primary prevention of risk factors. As Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) is a strong marker to predict the risk of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease, we assessed the correlat...
متن کاملAtherogenic Index of Plasma, Castelli Risk Index and Atherogenic Coefficient- New Parameters in Assessing Cardiovascular Risk
Coronary artery disease is the epidemic of modern civilization in which dyslipidemia contributes significantly to its pathogenesis. We studied the significance of three important lipid ratios i.e. Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) {(logTG)/HDLc}, Castelli’s Risk Index I & II (TC/HDLc and LDLc/HDLc respectively) and Atherogenic coefficient (AC) {(Non-HDLc)/HDLc} in predicting the risk of CAD. A ...
متن کاملAssessment of the Cardiovascular Risk in Subclinical Hypothyroidism
Background: The decision about whether to screen patients for subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is clouded by inconsistent evidence of association of dyslipidemia and other risk factors of cardiovascular disease with SCH and also any benefit from early treatment. Objective: To determine whether the known risk factors of cardiovascular disease such as hypertension, increase in fasting blood gluco...
