Total adiponectin assays may suffice for metabolic prediction; leaves open whether high-molecular weight measurement adds clinical value.
Williams et al. (2007) conducted a letter in Metabolic outcomes. High-molecular weight adiponectin versus total adiponectin assays vs. Other assays was evaluated on Metabolic outcomes. Previously developed assays measuring total adiponectin yielded effect estimates largely comparable to those of high-molecular weight adiponectin in predicting metabolic outcomes.
