The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between adiponectin, lipid profile, and atherogenic index in type2 diabetic patients.This study enrolled 60 type2 diabetic male subjects attend to the National Diabetic Center (AlMustansiyriyah University) Baghdad, Iraq; and 30 subjects serves as a control group. Fasting plasma glucose FPG, glycated hemoglobin HbA1c, insulin, lipid profile, and serum adiponectin were measured in T2DM males. Low density lipoprotein (LDL), atherogenic index and HOMA IR were calculated. Results showed that there was no significant difference for concerning waist circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressure between the diabetic subjects and control subjects. Diabetic group showed a highly significant increase in FPG, HbA1c, lipid profile (TC, TG, LDL), and athe...
