Abstract
The present study shows that elevation of plasma tHcy levels in type 2 diabetic patients is associated with a higher prevalence of peripheral arteriopathy and nephropathy. Our data suggest that hyperhomocysteinemia is not associated with fat mass but it is associated with high levels of fibrinogen, lipoprotein (a), microalbuminuria, and blood pressure levels.
