“…In this study, there were no significant correlations between the level of resistin and fasting blood sugar, hemoglobin A1C, serum creatinine, and body mass index. These results are similar to the ones obtained by Cebeci et al (13) and contrary to the results by Azab et al (17). Also, serum resistin level had a weak inverse correlation with the glomerular filtration rate, which can be due to kidney problems in patients with high levels of resistin.…”

“…It seems that neuropathy does not affect the fasting blood sugar level in patients with type-2 diabetes because it was critically higher in both diabetic groups with/without nephropathy than the healthy individuals, but there was no significant difference between the two groups. The body mass index of the three groups participating in the experiment was not significantly different from each other, the result of which is inconsistent with the results obtained in the study conducted by Satti et al (12), Cebci et al (13), and Azab et al (17). The reason for the lack of this relationship could be this, considering that the body mass index of the subjects did not have the necessary scope (highest: 48.82, average: 27.1, lowest: 19.48) and the index of most patients was in the low range (healthy subjects = 25.7 ± 0.5, diabetic without nephropathy (27.8 ± 0.1), diabetic with nephropathy (27.8 ± 0.9).…”

“…Our study population showed higher basal adiponectin and leptin serum levels than have been reported in other similar studies, for example, in German [ 31 ], Finnish [ 32 ], Japanese [ 8 ], Asian Indian [ 33 ], and Arabic diabetic populations [ 34 ], which is likely to be due to ethnicity. Resistin showed similar results compared with serum resistin levels of Egyptians and Japanese although slightly lower [ 35 , 36 ].…”

“…Heightened serum levels of resistin are present in diet‐induced obese mice and in diabetic mice . In humans, a significant positive correlation between fasting serum resistin levels, C‐reactive protein (inflammation biomarker), insulin resistance, fasting blood glucose levels, body mass index, and triglycerides was found and it was associated with T2DM‐induced retinopathy . The production of human resistin from macrophages and PBMCs is escalated upon treatment with lipopolysaccharide and proinflammatory cytokines while on the other hand, presence of human resistin also induces production of proinflammatory adipocytokines, leading to a vicious cycle of chronic inflammation .…”
