Persistent influence of past obesity on current adiponectin levels and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes
Findings of this study suggest that lower adiponectin levels, potentially reflecting past obesity, are associated with decreased survival in diabetic patients, underscoring a critical role of adiponectin in long-term health outcomes.
