Abstract
Renal function is inversely related to serum RBP4. As GFR decreases, the relationship between RBP4 and HOMA is attenuated. On the other hand, triglycerides remained strongly related to RBP4 and this was not affected by eGFR, suggesting that in the CKD population triglycerides may be a better marker of RBP4-associated metabolic effects.
