Association between adiponectin concentrations and cardiovascular disease in diabetic patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

<h4>Background</h4>This systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective studies evaluates the association between adiponectin concentrations and risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM).<h4>Methods</h4>PubMed and Embase were searched...

description <h4>Background</h4>This systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective studies evaluates the association between adiponectin concentrations and risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM).<h4>Methods</h4>PubMed and Embase were searched for prospective studies on the association of adiponectin concentrations and risk of CVD up to June 2013. Random-effect model was selected to pool the relative risk (RR) and 95% CI.<h4>Results</h4>Five prospective cohort studies and one nested case-control studies met the included criterion. The estimated summary RR and 95% CI of five prospective cohort studies for type 2 diabetes comparing top vs low tertile of adiponectin concentrations was 0.99 (95% CI: 0.67-1.45), with significant heterogeneity between studies (p = 0.037, I (2) = 60.9%). This heterogeneity was explained by one study conducted in Korean.<h4>Conclusions</h4>This study represents the first meta-analysis between adiponectin levels and CVD in diabetic patients and indicated no association was found. This result should be verified further by large sample size, long duration of follow-up, and well-designed prospective clinical trials.
