Relationship among adiponectin, insulin resistance and atherosclerosis in non-diabetic hypertensive patients and healthy adults
Adiponectin, which is secreted specifically by adipose tissue, has been shown to have anti-atherogenic and anti-inflammatory effects and to improve insulin resistance (IR). The aim of this study was to determine the correlations among adiponectin, IR and atherosclerosis in non-diabetic hypertensive...
