Is it possible for type 2 diabetic patients with low level of copper to have better glycemic control under different apolipoprotein B levels?

In patients with T2DM, a significant association between blood copper concentration and glycemic control was observed among individuals with lower apoB levels, whereas no such association was found among those with higher apoB levels. These findings suggest that apoB status may influence the relationship between blood copper and glycemic control and merit further investigation in longitudinal studies.

Abstract

In patients with T2DM, a significant association between blood copper concentration and glycemic control was observed among individuals with lower apoB levels, whereas no such association was found among those with higher apoB levels. These findings suggest that apoB status may influence the relationship between blood copper and glycemic control and merit further investigation in longitudinal studies.
