TyG-BMI and AIP Associations with Diabetes Risk in a Chinese Adult Cohort

A retrospective cohort study of 116,662 Chinese adults with normal baseline glucose levels, investigating the relationship between triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) and the Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) with diabetes risk. The data includes incident diabetes mellitus assessments after a mean follow-up of 37.4 months, with an overall diabetes incidence of 2.3% (n = 2,681). The dataset was authored by Sha Wang and shared on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Validate the predictive power of TyG-BMI for diabetes risk based on the reported odds ratio of 1.0100.
• Assess the independent association of AIP with diabetes incidence based on the reported odds ratio of 2.7800.
• Model dose-response relationships for diabetes risk using the reported inflection points of 296.292 for TyG-BMI and 0.677 for AIP.
• Evaluate the combined predictive value of TyG-BMI and AIP categories, as participants in the highest combined category had a 3.06-fold higher risk after adjustment.

Strengths

• Dataset is based on a large cohort of 116,662 participants.
• Study includes a mean follow-up period of 37.4 months for outcome assessment.
• Results include specific statistical measures like odds ratios and inflection points for risk factors.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count for the underlying analytical dataset is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data reflects a specific Chinese adult population, which may limit generalizability to other demographics.
