TLDR
Values of AIP correspond closely to those of FER(HDL) and to lipoprotein particle size and thus could be used as a marker of plasma atherogenicity.About:

Lipoprotein ratios: Physiological significance and clinical usefulness in cardiovascular prevention
Jesús Millán,Xavier Pintó,Anna Muñoz,Manuel Zúñiga,Joan Rubiés-Prat,Luis Felipe Pallardo,Luis Masana,Alipio Mangas,Antonio Hernández-Mijares,Pedro González-Santos,Juan F. Ascaso,Juan Pedro-Botet +11 more
TL;DR: Future recommendations regarding the diagnosis and treatment of dyslipidemia should include the lipoprotein ratios with greater predictive power which, in view of the evidence-based results, are none other than those which include HDL cholesterol.

Is There a Simple Way to Identify Insulin-Resistant Individuals at Increased Risk of Cardiovascular Disease?
Tracey McLaughlin,Gerald M. Reaven,Fahim Abbasi,Cindy Lamendola,Mohammed F. Saad,David D. Waters,Joel A. Simon,Ronald M. Krauss +7 more
TL;DR: A plasma triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration ratio > or =3.5 provides a simple means of identifying insulin-resistant, dyslipidemic patients who are likely to be at increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atherogenic index of plasma [log(triglycerides/HDL-cholesterol)]: theoretical and practical implications
TL;DR: The effect of pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione that reduces insulin resistance, on the atherogenic lipoprotein profile in individuals with type 2 diabetes is studied.

Treatment for 2 mo with n−3 polyunsaturated fatty acids reduces adiposity and some atherogenic factors but does not improve insulin sensitivity in women with type 2 diabetes: a randomized controlled study

TL;DR: A moderate dose of n-3 PUFAs for 2 mo reduced adiposity and atherogenic markers without deterioration of insulin sensitivity in subjects with type 2 diabetes and could be linked to morphologic and inflammatory changes in adipose tissue.

Fractional Esterification Rate of Cholesterol and Ratio of Triglycerides to HDL-Cholesterol Are Powerful Predictors of Positive Findings on Coronary Angiography
Jiri Frohlich,M. Dobiasova +1 more
TL;DR: FER(HDL) was the best laboratory predictor of the presence of coronary atherosclerotic lesions and appeared as the sole predictor of aCAD(+) if only laboratory tests were included in the multivariate logistic model.

Low-Density Lipoprotein Subclass Patterns and Risk of Myocardial Infarction
Melissa A. Austin,Jan L. Breslow,Charles H. Hennekens,Julie E. Buring,Walter C. Willett,Ronald M. Krauss +5 more
TL;DR: The association of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) subclass patterns with coronary heart disease was investigated in a case-control study of nonfatal myocardial infarction and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that both high-density cholesterol and triglyceride levels contributed to the risk associated with the small, dense LDL subclass pattern.

Small, dense low-density lipoprotein particles as a predictor of the risk of ischemic heart disease in men. Prospective results from the Québec Cardiovascular Study.
Benoît Lamarche,André Tchernof,Sital Moorjani,Bernard Cantin,Gilles R. Dagenais,Paul-J. Lupien,Jean-Pierre Després +6 more
TL;DR: These results represent the first prospective evidence suggesting that the presence of small, dense LDL particles may be associated with an increased risk of subsequently developing IHD in men and suggest that the risk attributed to small LDL particle may be partly independent of the concomitant variation in plasma lipoprotein-lipid concentrations.

Triglyceride concentration and ischemic heart disease : An eight-year follow-up in the Copenhagen Male Study
TL;DR: In middle-aged and elderly white men, a high level of fasting triglycerides is a strong risk factor of ischemic heart disease independent of other major risk factors, including HDL cholesterol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fasting Triglycerides, High-Density Lipoprotein, and Risk of Myocardial Infarction
TL;DR: The data indicate that fasting triglycerides, as a marker for triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, may provide valuable information about the atherogenic potential of the lipoprotein profile, particularly when considered in context of HDL levels.
