AimThe discovery of new adipokine, visfatin can significantly enhance our knowledge of insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus. We explored the relation of visfatin concentrations to cardiovascular risk factors, adiponectin and insulin resistance criteria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Materials and MethodsFifty-eight patients with T2DM were recruited from the out patients clinic of Shariati Hospital. Laboratory and anthropometric measurements include FBG, OGTT, HbA1c, fasting serum visfatin, insulin and adiponectin, HOMA-IR and hsCRP, weight, height, BMI and WHR were performed in all participants. All of the statistical data were analyzed using the SPSS15 software.ResultsThe log10-transformed (log) plasma visfatin concentration was in significant positive correlation with age (r = 0.286, p = 0.033). Patients were divided in two groups by median log visfatin (0.85 ng/mL): group I had low values and group II had high values. In group I the log visfatin was in significant positive correlation with age (r = 0.436, p = 0.018) and in group II log visfatin was in significant negative correlation with FPG and HbA1c (r > 0.4, p < 0.05).ConclusionIn conclusion high circulating levels of visfatin could be in healthy relations with cardiovascular risk factors, insulin resistance status and adiponectin in diabetic patients.
► We examine serum visfatin concentration in relation with some Laboratory and anthropometric measurements in patients with T2DM.
► A compare model of patients division in two groups by median serum visfatin concentrations.
► High concentration was in significant negative correlation with FPG and HbA1c.
► Increasing serum visfatin concentration could be in healthy relations quality of life in diabetic patients.
