Abstract:
Objective To investigate the C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and its macrovascular complications. Methods Serum CRP levels were assayed by ELISA, which were determined in type 2 DM patients with or without macrovascular complication (88 and 64 cases respectively), non-DM patients presenting with macrovascular disease (72 cases), as well as impaired fasting glucose (IFG) (62 cases) or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) (70 cases) patients and normal controls (80 subjects). Results In general, CRP levels in IGT patients, type 2 DM patients and non-DM patients presenting with macrovascular disease were higher than those of normal controls (P
