Impairments in Adipose Tissue Microcirculation in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Assessed by Real-Time Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound [Microvascular Disease]

Conclusions:
Impaired microvascular function in adipose tissue during T2D is not conditionally linked to systemic inflammation but is associated with other characteristics of the metabolic syndrome (obesity, insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, and dyslipidemia).
