Metabolic Syndrome and Its Associations with Plasma Adiponectin Levels in Patients with
Chronic Heart Failure × Close The Infona portal uses cookies, ie strings of text saved by a …

Background—Recent studies have suggested that higher body mass index (BMI) is
associated with improved prognosis in chronic heart failure (CHF). The adipocytokine …

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Chronic heart failure (HF) is characterised by a neurohormonal
dysfunction associated with chronic inflammation. A role of metabolic derangement in the …

Aims Adiponectin is a fat-derived hormone involved in the regulation of metabolism.
Adiponectin concentration is inversely related to body weight and, in animals, causes weight …

Adiponectin may influence the development of chronic heart failure (CHF), but the
epidemiological data are scarce. This is due in part to the fact that while higher BMIs are a …

Purpose Plasma adiponectin concentrations are inversely related with metabolic syndrome
(MetS), and MetS is associated with increased risk for heart failure (HF). However, the …

Eur J Clin Invest 2011; 41 (12): 1330–1338 Abstract Background We hypothesized that,
besides type 2 diabetes (T2D) and body mass index (BMI), circulating adiponectin …

BACKGROUND: Adiponectin, which is a collagen-like plasma protein produced by adipose
tissue, has in general anti-atherogenic and anti-inflammatory effects. Recently it was shown …

Background and aims Adiponectin (ADPN) as an adipose tissue hormone contributes to
regulation of energy metabolism and body composition and is associated with …

Objectives: To determine concentrations of adiponectin and its predictive value on outcome
in a cohort of patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Methods: Serum and clinical data …
