Lipid Profile and Atherogenic Index in Type 2 Diabetes by Fatimah Dwi is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This study evaluates the lipid profile and plasma atherogenicity index (AIP = log(TG/HDL-c)) in 100 type 2 diabetes patients to assess cardiovascular risk. Results indicate significant lipid disturbances, with higher total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol levels compared to controls, and 26% of patients showing elevated AIP values. The findings suggest that dyslipidemia in diabetics is a critical factor for cardiovascular complications, highlighting AIP as a sensitive predictor of risk.
