Key result
Circulating adiponectin concentration was positively associated with endothelium-independent vasodilation in healthy subjects (r=0.41, P=0.002), independent of insulin sensitivity.
Population
120 subjects, comprising 68 healthy subjects and 52 patients with altered glucose tolerance.
Design
Cross-sectional

Association in healthy subjects warrants no practice change; hypothesis-generating for its absence in glucose intolerance.

Circulating adiponectin is positively associated with endothelium-independent vasodilation in healthy individuals, independent of insulin sensitivity, but this relationship is lost in those with altered glucose tolerance.
Fernández‐Real et al. (2004) conducted a cross-sectional in Healthy and altered glucose tolerance (n=120). Circulating adiponectin was evaluated on Endothelium-independent vasodilation (EIVD) (r=0.41, p=0.002). Circulating adiponectin concentration was positively associated with endothelium-independent vasodilation in healthy subjects (r=0.41, P=0.002), independent of insulin sensitivity.
