Description
Summary:Background. The association between atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and hyperuricemia remains indistinct. This study was aimed to examine the relationship between AIP and hyperuricemia among the middle-aged and the elderly Chinese population. Methods. Datasets were retrieved from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) survey conducted in 2011 and 2015. 13,021 participants in the CHARLS in 2011 and 7,017 participants involved both in 2011 and 2015 were included, respectively. The measurement of AIP and hyperuricemia was based on the test of fasting blood. Association between AIP and hyperuricemia was assessed by logistic regression, and the nonlinear association was examined by restricted cubic splines (RCS). The cutoff point of AIP was calculated using receiver operator curve (ROC). 1 : 1 propensity score matching (PSM) was adopted to further explore the relationship between AIP and hyperuricemia. Results. In the section of a cross-sectional study, a positive association between AIP and hyperuricemia was found. The odds ratios (ORs) of hyperuricemia were 1.00 (reference), 1.52 (1.10–2.10), 1.80 (1.31–2.47), and 3.81 (2.84–5.11). Nonlinear association was not detected using RCS analysis. There were 664 hyperuricemia cases during the four years follow-up. The hyperuricemia prevalence was 9.5%. In the fully adjusted longitudinal analysis, the ORs for hyperuricemia across the quartiles of AIP were 1.00 (reference), 1.00 (0.74–1.37), 1.59 (1.20–2.11), and 2.55 (1.94–3.35), respectively. In the longitudinal analysis after PSM, the OR of hyperuricemia were 1.91 (1.45, 2.51) and 1.92 (1.45, 2.54) in the univariate and multivariate model, respectively. Conclusion. AIP can predict the prevalence of hyperuricemia in the Chinese middle-aged and elderly population.
