Abstract

Total Adiponectin and Risk of Symptomatic Lower Extremity Peripheral Vascular Disease in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Highlights

  • Adiponectin is an adipocyte-derived protein that has gained considerable research interest because of its pleiotropic effects on insulin sensitivity, atherosclerosis and inflammation [1]

  • We investigated the association between total adiponectin and risk of lower extremity peripheral vascular disease (PVD)

  • On distributing cases according to Adiponectin level in Relation to PVD, total of 60 patients were included in study and distributed in two groups of either decreased or normal adiponectin level
