Occurrence of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Subjects with Metabolic Syndrome: Role of Adiponectin
Journal Title: Journal of Diabetes and Obesity - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
This study was designed to evaluate the role of total plasma adiponectin ADPN on the occurrence of left ventricular hypertrophy in subjects with metabolic syndrome MetS compared to a control group without MetS The main finding of our study concerns the independent predictor role of ADPN in the occurrence of LVH in all the patients studied Accordingly circulating ADPN might be considered a nonhaemodynamic factor of LVH in subjects with MetS
