Finally, another strength of this work is its’ novelty, where, to our knowledge, this is the first study in which body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), blood lipids, fasting blood sugar, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), and electrolytes were evaluated to provide better insight into the association between dietary GI, GL, DII, and DIL and cardiometabolic risk factors in subjects with atherosclerosis. The gene discussed is GPT; the disease is atherosclerosis.
