Rehab Ibraheem Yaseen*, Walaa Farid and Alshaimaa Ali

Background: Ischemic heart disease is the most common cause of death all over the world; its rate is expected to be accelerated in the next decade. Adiponectin is a protein hormone that modulates a number of metabolic processes, including glucose regulation and acid oxidation.

Objective: To correlate serum levels of adiponectin and CAD severity assessed by Gensini score.

Subjects and methods: Ninety subjects were recruited from catheterization unit (36 subjects with normal coronary arteries and 54 patients with CAD) and they were subdivided into four groups according to the number of affected vessel. Their modified Gensini score was calculated according to the severity of coronary lesions. Blood samples were withdraw... view moreĀ»
