Background—Elevated circulating levels of fetuin-A in blood have been associated with
increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The goal of our study was to prospectively …

Background and aims Fetuin-A has a plausible role in the inhibition of arterial calcification,
but its association with risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) in the general population is …

Low fetuin-A levels are associated with cardiovascular death: Impact of variations in the
gene encoding fetuin. Background Vascular calcification is common among end-stage renal …

Background—Fetuin-A is a multifunctional hepatic secretory protein that inhibits the action of
insulin in experimental animals. We evaluated the association between human serum fetuin …

Background—Fetuin-A, a protein almost exclusively secreted by the liver, induces insulin
resistance and subclinical inflammation in rodents. Circulating fetuin-A levels are elevated in …

OBJECTIVE Fetuin-A levels are associated with higher risk of type 2 diabetes, but it is
unknown if the association is causal. We investigated common (> 5%) genetic variants in the …

Context: Cardiovascular disease is significantly increased in individuals with type 2 diabetes
mellitus (T2DM), especially in the presence of calcified atherosclerotic plaque. Fetuin A is an …

Objective—The present study was designed to evaluate the association of circulating fetuin-
A with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality. Approach and Results—We …

Aims Fetuin-A is a hepatic secretory protein that both promotes insulin resistance and
inhibits arterial calcification. Previous studies have suggested that the association of fetuin-A …

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the association of fetuin-A with subclinical
cardiovascular disease (CVD) in community-living individuals. Background: Fetuin-A is a …
