Abstract:
Objective To investigate whether the serum adiponectin is related to the atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetes.Methods Thirty three normal control subjects(NC group),66 type 2 diabetes subjects without atherosclerosis(NAS group),and 66 type 2 diabetes subjects with atherosclerosis(AS group) were recruited.The intima media thickness(IMT) of dorsalis pedis artery were measured using B-mode Doppler ultrasonography.Serum adiponectin and other gluco-lipid metabolic indices were determined.Results 1)Compared with NC group and NAS group,the IMT value in AS patients were significantly increased(P
