Abstract.Objective: To explore the effect of vitamin D3 on novel serum adipokines, secreted frizzled-related protein 5 (SFRP5) and Wingless-Type MMTV Integration Site Family Member 5a (Wnt5a) levels in Type 2 ...
Abstract.Background: Although inadequate vitamin D and altered parathyroid hormone (PTH) are implicated in deranged glucose metabolism and risk of future diabetes, their role in regulating glucose homeostasis in established cases of diabetes is unclear. ...
Hintergrund: Die Prävalenz an peripherer arterieller Verschlusskrankheit (PAVK) ist bei diabetischen Patienten erhöht.Es ist nicht eindeutig aufgeklärt, ob die PAVK-Risikofaktoren beim Typ 1 und Typ 2 Diabetes identisch sind. Es war das Ziel der Studie, ...
Summary:Background: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a risk factor for adverse limb events (LE) and cardiovascular events (CVE) that coexists with type 1 (T1) and 2 (T2) diabetes mellitus (DM). Little is known about comparative risk of LE and CVE in ...
