The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) has been demonstrated to be a biochemical risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). This study aimed to determine whether the AIP is an effective parameter for estimating obstructive CAD. Methods and Results: A total of 345 patients (with a mean age of 62.2 \u00b1 10.3; 63% male) who underwent coronary angiography were included in this study. Obstructive CAD is defined as having one or more vessels with a stenosis level of \u226550%. Depending on the presence of obstructive CAD, all patients were divided into two groups. The mean AIP value was found to be 0.538 \u00b1 0.26 in the study group. The AIP values were significantly higher in the obstructive coronary artery group (AIP; 0.49 \u00b1 0.26 vs. 0.58 \u00b1 0.27, p = 0.002). According to a univariable analysis, AIP values were significantly associated with obstructive coronary artery disease [OR: 3.74 (CI 95% 1.62\u20138.64), p = 0.020]. The AIP was further adjusted for confounding risk factors in three multivariable analysis models and, all three models showed a significant association. According to an ROC analysis, 0.49 is the cut-off value for AIP, and a value above 0.49 indicates 50% coronary artpery stenosis. Conclusions: The AIP may be used in the assessment of cardiovascular risk for patients with stable angina pectoris, and it may also be used to estimate obstructive CAD.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/diagnostics13203249","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,19]],"date-time":"2023-10-19T05:43:28Z","timestamp":1697694208000},"page":"3249","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Atherogenic Index of Plasma Predicts Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease in Patients with Stable Angina Pectoris"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Haci Ali","family":"Kurklu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Ankara Etlik Research Hospital, Ankara 06590, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9349-3371","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Turkan Seda","family":"Tan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Ankara University School of Medicine, Ankara 06590, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nil","family":"Ozyuncu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Ankara University School of Medicine, Ankara 06590, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emir","family":"Baskovski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Ankara University School of Medicine, Ankara 06590, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cagdas","family":"Ozdol","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Ankara University School of Medicine, Ankara 06590, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2680","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2021.01.059","article-title":"Framingham Heart Study: Jacc Focus Seminar, 1\/8","volume":"77","author":"Andersson","year":"2021","journal-title":"J.
