The positive association between the atherogenic index of plasma and the risk of new-onset hypertension: a nationwide cohort study in China by Yue Yuan, Jing Shi, Wei Sun, Xiangqing Kong

“…The risks of new-onset hypertension were nearly 1.30 times higher in subjects in Q2–4 than in subjects in Q1 (p < .01) after the full adjustment when we excluded subjects with diabetes and/or chronic kidney diseases. There was a significant difference [HR (CI): 1.27 (1.04–1.54) vs. 0.90 (0.69–1.18)] when subjects were divided into two groups according to body mass index (BMI) level (<24 vs. ≥24 kg/m2).Conclusions The present study suggested that individuals with a higher AIP index are associated with new-onset hypertension, independent of kidney function and glucose levels. …”
