| Abstract |
Metabolic syndrome and dyslipidemia contribute to the development of a pro-inflammatory state in asthma. However, studies investigating the association between asthma and dyslipidemia have reported conflicting results. This study aimed to uncover the relationship between asthma and lipid profiles in adolescents using a national health and nutrition survey. This cross-sectional study analyzed the 2010-2012 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data and included 2841 subjects aged 11-18 years with fasting blood sample data. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were analyzed. We compared asthma prevalence between high-risk and low-risk lipid groups. There were 123 adolescents with asthma and 2718 without asthma (controls). The TC/HDL-C ratio, LDL-C/HDL-C ratio, and non-HDL-C levels were significantly higher in the asthma group than in the non-asthma group (P < 0.05). The high-risk groups displayed significantly higher asthma prevalence with higher TC, TG, LDL-C, and non-HDL-C levels and TG/HDL-C ratio than the low-risk groups (P < 0.05). After adjusting for potential confounding factors, the high-risk groups were associated with asthma according to their higher TC levels (adjusted odds ratio, 1.69; 95% confidence interval, 1.012-2.822) and TG/HDL-C ratios (adjusted odds ratio, 1.665; 95% confidence interval, 1.006-2.756). Asthma prevalence was greater in adolescents with a high TC level and TG/HDL-C ratio. In addition to the standard lipid profile, elevated TG/HDL-C ratio can be used as a useful additional lipid measure to evaluate interactions between dyslipidemia and asthma. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 20 July 2018.
All research outputs
#20,527,576
of 23,096,849 outputs
Outputs from Lipids in Health and Disease
#1,210
of 1,459 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#287,707
of 329,174 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Lipids in Health and Disease
#32
of 39 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,096,849 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,459 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.1. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 329,174 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 39 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
