Condition
Key Mechanisms
Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) as a marker of cardiovascular risk based on study findings.
Target Population
Care Setting
Key Highlights
AIP levels correlate with severity of coronary stenosis.
AIP shows better discriminative ability than traditional lipid markers.
Guideline-Based Recommendations
Diagnosis
Consider AIP in cardiovascular risk assessment.
Management
Evaluate AIP levels in T2DM patients.
Monitoring & Follow-up
Include AIP in lipid parameter assessments.
Risks
Higher AIP levels are associated with increased severity of coronary stenosis.
Patient & Prescribing Data
303 T2DM patients who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)
AIP may provide additional insights into cardiovascular risk beyond LDL-C levels.
Clinical Best Practices
Measure AIP in lipid panels for T2DM patients.
Assess AIP alongside other cardiovascular risk factors.
