Humoral markers of inflammation and endothelial dysfunction in relation to adiposity and in vivo insulin action in Pima Indians

Several studies have shown that humoral markers of inflammation and endothelial dysfunction are predictive of macrovascular events, and correlated with indirect measures of adiposity and insulin action, thus providing a possible link between obesity, insulin resistance and atherosclerosis. We examined the relationship between humoral markers of inflammation and endothelial dysfunction and direct measures of adiposity and insulin action in Pima...
