Evaluating The Feasibility of Pro-Neurotensin And 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 As Possible Indicators for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Its Complications

Document Type : Abstracts

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and metabolic syndrome are associated with decreased vitamin D. In contrast, high pro-neurotensin (pro-NT) levels are linked with an increased risk of T2DM and cardiovascular disease. We aimed to determine the validity of pro-NT and 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 levels as predictors for T2DM complications.
