Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: Adiponectin is suspected to exert antiatherogenic, antiinflammatory, and insulin-sensitizing effects. However, the relative importance of the genetic and environmental factors in influencing plasma adiponectin levels (ADPN) remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to investigate whether ADPN and body mass index (BMI) are genetically determined. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, AND MAIN OUTCOME...
