Abstract:
Ojective To investigate the relationship between the serum adiponectin concentration and insulin resistance in patients with obesity and diabetic patients. Methods Fasting serum adiponectin concentration was measured by RIA in 19 normal subjects, 23 obese subjects, 31 diabetic patients without obesity and 26 diabetic patients with obesity. Results There was no significant difference in serum adiponectin concentration between nomal and obese subjects, and between type 2 diabetics without obesity and type 2 diabetics with obesity . The serum adiponectin concentrations was significantly higher in type 2 diabetics without or with obesity than that in nomal and obese subjects. There was significant difference in serum adiponectin concentration between female and male subjects. Body mass index (BMI), waist circumference(WC), waist-hip ratio (WHR), body fat percentage (BF%), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), insulin sensitivity index (ISI), triglyceride (TG) and high density lipoprotein-C (HDL-C) were significantly correlated with serum adiponectin concentration. A stepwise mulitiple linear regression analysis showed that HDL-C, FPG, WC, BF% entered the regression equation. Conclusion Serum adiponection level was associated with sex, obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus and insulin resistance.
