Association between cumulative atherogenic index of plasma exposure and risk of myocardial infarction in the general population

Cardiovasc DiabetolPublished Prospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Long-term cumulative exposure to AIP and the time course of AIP accumulation increased the risk of MI. High AIP earlier resulted in a greater risk increase than later in life with the same time-weighted cumulative AIP, emphasizing the importance of controlling atherogenic dyslipidemia early in life.
