High levels of adipokines were present in those who had the disease
A recent study has found that higher presence of certain biomarkers could indicate that a person might become diabetic in future.
The study by Dr. A. Ramachandran’s Diabetes Hospitals found that some people considered predisposed to diabetes owing to family history could develop the condition sooner.
The researchers took two adipokines specifically, visfatin and resistin, to understand their correlation with obesity, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases.
