Skin microvascular vasodilatory capacity in offspring of two parents with Type 2 diabetes

Abstract

In normoglycaemic adults cutaneous microvascular vasodilatory capacity is associated with features of insulin resistance syndrome, particularly with plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1. A strong family history of Type 2 diabetes alone does not result in impairment in the maximum hyperaemic response. Diabet. Med. 18, 541-545 (2001)
