This study was aimed to investigate the biological association between resistin, adiponectin, visfatin and ghrelin hormones with some coagulation markers. The study included 130 patient and 42 healthy subjects. Serum resistin, adiponectin, visfatin, ghrelin and some other hematological and biochemical parameters were estimated. Statistical analysis showed that altered resistin, adiponectin, visfatin, and ghrelin levels were significantly and directly or indirectly through insulin resistance (IR) associated with clotting markers. From the main studied levels of adipokines, ghrelin, and clotting parameters, the study indicated high levels of serum resistin, adiponectin, visfatin and ghrelin hormones in NIDDM, ESRD, NIDDM+ESRD patients. Also, altered platelets (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial prothrombin time (aPPT), plasminogen activator inhibitor- 1 (PAI-1), and fibrinogen1 were observed. The studied adipocytokines and ghrelin concentration was correlated directly and indirectly through IR with the studied clotting parameters.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
