| Abstract |
The association between atherogenic dyslipidemia (AD) and incident type 2 diabetes (T2D) in the low-risk group for T2D has not yet been determined. The aims of this study were to investigate whether AD, characterized by increased serum apoB and non-HDL cholesterol, could predict the development of T2D in subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT). A total of 84,394 subjects with NGT (48,906 men and 35,488 women), aged 20-89 years (mean age 38.4 years), were enrolled in this study and were followed for a mean duration of 3.3 years. ApoB and non-HDL cholesterol levels showed stronger associations with the development of T2D compared with conventional lipid measurements and their ratios (HR per 1-SD (95 % CI) 1.27 (1.23-1.30) and 1.27 (1.24-1.29), respectively, both P < 0.001). In multivariate Cox regression models, both apoB and non-HDL cholesterol were associated with the development of T2D, independent of other risk factors for T2D, fasting serum glucose, HbA1c, and conventional lipid measurements such as triglycerides and HDL cholesterol (HR per 1-SD (95 % CI) 1.16 (1.11-1.21) and 1.15 (1.11-1.19), respectively, both P < 0.001). However, fasting serum glucose was not associated with the development of T2D in these models. In conclusion, AD was more closely associated with the development of T2D than fasting glucose or glycated hemoglobin in subjects with NGT. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 18 August 2014.
All research outputs
#13,679,249
of 24,217,893 outputs
Outputs from Acta Diabetologica
#442
of 958 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#108,817
of 231,374 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Acta Diabetologica
#9
of 13 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,217,893 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 958 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.6. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 53% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 231,374 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 52% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 13 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
