| In the cross-sectional analysis, we will examine the relationship between apoD levels and insulin resistance (HOMA-IR, adiponection levels, etc.), markers for inflammation (CRP, TNFa, etc.), biochemical data, diabetic complication and status of atherosclerotic diseases. Afterwards, patients are followed periodically (one, 3, 6 and 9 years later), and as a longitudinal study, we will examine the influence of apoD and other markers (inflammation, insulin resistance, biochemical data) on the progression of diabetic complications and atherosclerosis. | — |
