Introduction:
Diabetes Mellitus is a syndrome characterizedby chronic hyperglycemia and disturbances of carbohydrate,fat and protein metabolism with absolute or relative deficiencyof insulin secretion and/or insulin action. It is one of themost common non-communicable diseases in the world.Adiponectin is a protein secreted exclusively by adipocytesthat regulates glucose and lipid metabolism. It has been foundto influence the body’s response to insulin thereby modulatinginsulin action and resistance. Several studies have found thatadiponectin levels are inversely associated with the severityof diabetes mellitus. Our study, thus, aims to compare theassociation between levels of adiponectin, fasting bloodglucose, body mass index and waist-hip ratio in patients ofdiabetes mellitus.Material andMethods:
This case control study was done inpatients of type 2 diabetes mellitus attending Medicine OPDand ward from October 2016 to September 2018. A total of 88people were included in the study; 44 cases and 44 controls.Results:
This study shows that serum adiponectin level issignificantly decreased in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients ascompared to controls and it also shows negative correlationwith fasting blood glucose, body mass index and waist-hipratio.Conclusion:
It can be concluded that serum adiponectinestimation may be a useful biomarker for the diagnosis oftype 2 diabetes mellitus and it may be a useful adjunct in thetreatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
