Insulin resistance and levels of adipokines in patients with untreated early rheumatoid arthritis

Abstract: The aim of this study is to investigate the presence of insulin resistance (IR) in patients with untreated early rheumatoid arthritis (ERA) and its relationship with adipokines, inflammatory cytokines, and treatment. In this prospective study, we enrolled 46 ERA patients with a disease duration of <1 year, and 45 sex-, age-, race-, and body mass index (BMI)-matched controls. Patients and controls with diabetes or a history of glucocorticoid (GC) or disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) use were exclud… Show more

“…This demonstrated a relationship between inflammatory factors and insulin resistance [2931]. Consistently, there are increased levels of serum inflammatory markers, IL-6, in patients with type 2 diabetes, which can induce beta-cell apoptosis [19, 3133].…”

“…However, the association of the role of these substances and their manifestations in the preclinical phase is not well established. Few studies have been conducted on the measurement of adipokines in the early stage, with controversial outcomes …”

“…Возможно, это обусловлено применением менее жестких критериев для определения ИР. В единственном исследовании, в котором использовался сходный критерий (значение HOMA-IR >2,75), частота ИР оказалась гораздо ниже (21%) и сопоставима с полученными нами результатами [16].…”
