A U-shaped relationship between the atherogenic index of plasma and repeated target vessel revascularization in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: a retrospective study

Atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) has been recognized as a novel and practical marker for the assessment of cardiometabolic risk, but the relevance of AIP as a prognostic biomarker in coronary artery disease (CAD) remains debated. This study investigated the association between AIP and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) in CAD patients receiving percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents (DES).
