Abstract
Introduction: Earlier evidence on the general population is indicating that levels of retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) might be considered as possible surrogate marker of cardiovascular risk. Recent data in the postmenopausal population suggested no link between subclinical atherosclerosis and levels of RBP4., however, associations with arteriosclerosis remain unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the possible link between RBP4 values and cardiovascular risk factors as well as homocysteine, which is directly involved in retinoic acid synthesis, in a sample of apparently healthy postmenopausal women.
