- Although only 20 (6.7%) of the health workers had intermediate-high risk AIP dyslipidaemia, there was a positively higher correlation between AIP score and triglyceride (0.912) and this was significant at P value < 0.001, while there was a negatively high correlation between AIP score and HDL cholesterol (-0.558) at p value of < 0.001. AIP risk was also significantly positively correlated to BMI (0.118, p value 0.041), waist circumference (0.174, p value 0.002) and fasting blood glucose (0.182, p value 0.002); and negatively correlated to LDL cholesterol (-0.215, p value < 0.001)
