Background. Renal function affects thyroid function and adipocytokines in many ways. We
aimed to assess the adipocytokines adiponectin and leptin in relation to thyroid function in …

Background: Several studies have shown that type 1 diabetic patients have elevated total
levels of the adipocyte-derived adipocytokine adiponectin. However, adiponectin circulates …

In spite of association between high plasma adiponectin and high metabolic and
cardiovascular (CV) risk, highest adiponectin increments retain CV and metabolic protective …

Adipokines including leptin, adiponectin, visfatin, resistin, and interleukin (IL)-6 significantly
influence energy metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and cardiovascular health. In the current …

Objective The chronic kidney disease (CKD) is widely diagnosed on the basis of
albuminuria and the glomerular filtration rate. A more precise diagnosis of CKD, however …

Adiponectin is produced exclusively by adipocytes, and its serum concentration is inversely
associated with adiposity. This study examines the relationship among diabetes, renal …

Objectives To assess the association of serum adiponectin and microvascular complications
of diabetes in an urban south Indian type 2 diabetic population. Design and methods …

Objective Serum adiponectin levels are affected by gender, body fat mass, several
pathological factors or therapeutic interventions and it might be also affected by age. This …

BACKGROUND: Adiponectin is considered to have anti-inflammatory, insulin-sensitizing,
and antiatherosclerotic properties. In the present prospective study, the relationship between …

Abstract Background/Aims: Adiponectin seems to be an important modulator for metabolic
and vascular diseases. A case study was designed to measure plasma adiponectin levels …
