Background: Hyperuricemia is related to various cardiometabolic diseases in US adults, having an increasingly substantial impact on healthcare resources and costs. Nonetheless, there are limited studies examining the association between Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) and hyperuricemia in middle-aged and elderly individuals. Methods: We carried out a cross-sectional research study using data obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). All 12,261 participants were classified according to the AIP quartiles. Participants aged <18 years, without Body Mass Index (BMI), waist, blood pressure, stringent Complete Response (sCR), Triglycerides (TG), HDL-C, LDL-C data, alcohol use, and smoking behavior information were excluded. AIP is calculated as the log TG to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL.. Read More»
