Abstract:
0.5). Conclusions There is an increasing trend of resistin level in healthy volunteers and patients with obesity, diabetes mellitus and hyperthyroidism in order Resistin also was a positive and an inverse correlation with BMI and resistance index respectively. These results support the hypothesis of Steppan that resistin causes insulin resistance and links obesity to diabetes, and that the high level of resistin in hyperthyroidism can help to explain the phenomenon of its insulin resistance.
