Enhanced inflammation in subgroups of metabolic syndrome irrespective of glycaemic status

Abstract

The objectives of this study were to biomarkers in subjects with metabolic syndrome (status. Subjects (n=319) were categorized impaired fastig glucose (MSIFG) and normoglycemia (MSNG)] Inflammatory biomarkers (high endothelial activation (soluble intercellul molecule-1 and E-selectin) were measured and compared between the groups.MS subjects had significant increase in all biomarkers compared to NC subjects. Glyc subgroups did not show any association with the quartiles of all biomarkers, except for interleukin-6. This may partially explain their increased coronary risk.
