Association of serum cortisol with insulin secretion and plasma aldosterone with insulin resistance in untreated type 2 diabetes: a cross-sectional study
Serum cortisol levels are associated with insulin secretion, and the PAC is associated with insulin resistance in patients with untreated type 2 diabetes. These findings suggest that aldosterone blockade may represent a potential therapeutic approach for reducing insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes.
