Atherogenic 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 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 کاملdyslipidemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus: more atherogenic lipid profile in women
previous studies have shown that diabetes mellitus (dm) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease in women to a greater extent than in men. it seems that dm may alter lipid profiles more adversely in women compared to men. in this study we evaluated serum lipoprotein differences in type 2 diabetic men and women. the study included 350 type 2 diabetic patients (100 men and 250 women), aged 19...
متن کاملIncretins in type 2 diabetes mellitus: cardiovascular and anti-atherogenic effects beyond glucose lowering.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the most outspreading disease of the western world and it provides cardiovascular disease. During the past decade new drug categories were added to the already existing ones. Perhaps, the most outstanding, as promising, too, are glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1) analogues, which pinpointed at the incretin hormone system, targeting mainly at the postprandial hyperglycemi...
متن کاملLipid profile and plasma atherogenic index in postmenopausal osteoporosis
OBJECTIVE The goal of this study was to investigate the relationship between the lipid profile, plasma atherogenic index (PAI), and osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. METHODS The data of age, duration of menopause, height, weight, lipid profile, bone mineral density (BMD) value, and history of oral contraceptive use of 407 postmenopausal women who had not been menstruating for at least 12 ...
