Insulin resistance typically characterizes type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and prediabetic states and is the prominent feature of the metabolic syndrome.Adiponectin plays an important part in glucose metabolism,insulin resistance, the deterioration of renal function.we hypothesize there is a difference serum adiponectin levels between obese and non-obese women with type 2 diabetic nephropathy.
