Abstract:
Objective To understand the serum adiponectin levels in normal subjects and type 2 diabetes patients with macrovascular complications, to investigate the correlation between adipnectin and macrovascular complications in type 2 diabetes patients. Methods One hundred and two normal subjects, 116 type 2 diabetes patients and 123 type 2 diabetic patients with macrovascular complications were recruited in the current study. The serum adiponectin levels among three groups were compared, and the factors affecting the serum adiponectin were investigated. Results ①The serum adiponectin level was significantly lower in type 2 diabetic patients (8. 62 ± 2. 97) mg/L than that in normal subjects (10. 03 ± 4.41) mg/L, and was the lowest in type 2 diabetic patients with macrovascular complications(6. 17 ± 2. 55) mg/L(P < 0.05). ②Serum adiponetin level was negatively correlated with BMI,WHR,HOMA-IR,fasting insulin level, HbAlC and TG(r = -0.492, -0. 581, -0. 813, -0. 754, -0.619, -0.387, P<0.05). ③In a general multivariate regression, HOMA-IR fasting insulin and HbAlc.were negatively correlated with serum adipnectin level (r = - 0. 828, - 0. 769, - 0. 631, P < 0. 01). Conclusions The serum adiponectin level in type 2 diabetic patients is significantly decreased and even more in type 2 diabetic patients with macrovascular complications. These results suggest that lower serum adiponectin level is related to macrovascular complications in type 2 diabetic patients and maybe plays an important role in atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetic patients.
