Popis: To measure Plasma Adiponectin concentrations in patients with Type 2 Diabetes mellitus and compare with Plasma Adiponectin levels in Non Diabetic healthy controls.Study includes 60 Diabetic cases and 60 age and sex matched Non-Diabetic healthy controls.Adiponectin levels were significantly lower in 60 Diabetic patients (mean adiponectin levels=3.32±1.57 plt;0.05) when compared to Non Diabetic controls (mean=10.36±3.73).Significant negative correlation was seen with FBS,PPBS,HbA1C and BMI.The results show that adiponectin levels are lower in patients with Type2 Diabetes mellitus. This suggests that adiponectin may take part in the pathogenesis of Diabetis mellitus.
