This observational analysis shows a significant correlation between lipid accumulation product and insulin resistance in adults, highlighting its importance as a diagnostic marker.
Key Points
Lipid accumulation product is strongly linked to insulin resistance, especially in males, indicating its diagnostic potential.
Results reveal that LAP has a more substantial correlation with HOMA-IR compared to traditional metrics like BMI and waist circumference.
Anthropometric measures including LAP, waist circumference, and BMI were utilized to assess insulin resistance among 140 healthy adults.
The findings emphasize LAP's clinical relevance in identifying metabolic diseases and cardiovascular risks, particularly within the Bangladeshi population.
