Adiponectin and HbA1c levels among Indian patients with diabetes mellitus

Bioinformation. 2024 Feb 29;20(2):202-207. doi: 10.6026/973206300200202. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTAdiponectin is closely related to glucose metabolism and newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and other kinds of diabetes linked to the risk of T2DM. Therefore, it is of interest to report the correlation between adiponectin levels and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) as a diagnostic marker of T2DM and healthy control. Total 210 participants were included of IPD & OPD healthy controls with glycosylated hemoglobin levels under 6% were included. Blood samples, collected using sterile clot activator or plain vials, were stored at -20°C. The biomarker score that comprised significant differences in age, gender distribution, and metabolic indicators are seen between the diabetes (n=105) and control (n=105) groups. Increase in both Adiponectin and HbA1c% Mean±SD (6.86±0.23, p<0.0001; 22.71±2.01; p<0.0001) is indicative of deteriorating glycaemic control and an accompanying rise in inflammatory response. Positively correlate adiponectin levels with HbA1c levels (r2=0.398; p<0.0001), suggesting a link between inflammatory response and glucose control. Lower adiponectin levels are statistically associated with diabetes. Diabetes and adiponectin were negatively correlated and positive linear relationship between HbA1c and adiponectin levels. Adiponectin may be a significant factor useful in understanding the pathophysiology; they are likely to be straight forwar...
