Reduced plasma epidermal growth factor levels reflect poor glycaemic status in type 2 diabetes
Reduced EGF levels are associated with poor glycaemic control in T2D. These findings highlight EGF's potential as a biomarker for glycaemic dysregulation and support further investigation into its role in diabetes pathophysiology and complications.
