The development of microalbuminuria is associated with raised longitudinal adiponectin levels in female but not male adolescent patients with type 1 diabetes

Abstract: Aims/hypothesis We determined the longitudinal relationship between adiponectin levels and the development of microalbuminuria in an inception cohort of children with type 1 diabetes. Methods Blood samples collected annually over a median of 9.0 (range 1.3-14.9) years were assayed for adiponectin and HbA 1c in 55 children (36 girls) with type 1 diabetes and microalbuminuria whose age of onset of diabetes was 9.4 years (range 2.2-15.4). Samples were also assayed from normoalbuminuric children (controls) matched… Show more

“…Most studies of adiponectin in type 1 diabetes have been cross-sectional and clinic based [ 4 , 8 , 18 20 ], and few included multicenter or population-based samples [ 9 , 10 , 12 14 ]. Limited longitudinal investigations have primarily followed younger individuals [ 7 , 21 , 22 ], and none have spanned durations from diagnosis during childhood through long-standing diabetes in adults. Consequently, there is little information on how adiponectin changes across longer type 1 diabetes duration and whether factors associated with adiponectin levels differ during early and later diabetes.…”

“…Several earlier studies focused on the relationship between plasma adiponectin and renal complications in diabetic patients [6,16]. Few researchers, however, have investigated the association between urinary adiponectin level and vascular damage.…”

“…A relationship between circulating adiponectin level and metabolic conditions such as insulin resistance, obesity, and diabetes mellitus has been demonstrated in previous studies [2-4]. Circulating adiponectin concentration has been shown to be significantly correlated with microalbuminuria and overt nephropathy in type 1 diabetic patients [5,6]. Furthermore, some researchers have reported an association between adiponectin concentration and vascular diseases or arterial stiffness using pulse wave velocity [7-9].…”

“…All subjects had diabetes according to WHO criteria [27]. Microalbuminuria was defined as an albumin:creatinine ratio (ACR) of greater than 2.5 mg/mmol in men and 3.5 mg/mmol in women [28][29][30]. Macroalbuminuria was defined as an ACR > 30 mg/mmol.…”
