Distribution and Clinical Association of Plasma Soluble ST2 during the Development of Type 2 Diabetes

Highlights • We investigated the dynamic changes of plasma soluble ST2 (sST2) levels during the development of type 2 diabetes. • Elevated sST2 levels were not only associated with metabolic characteristics of diabetes but also with a significantly increased risk of diabetes. • With the prediabetic...

Summary:Highlights • We investigated the dynamic changes of plasma soluble ST2 (sST2) levels during the development of type 2 diabetes. • Elevated sST2 levels were not only associated with metabolic characteristics of diabetes but also with a significantly increased risk of diabetes. • With the prediabetic population as a reference group, the patients with sST2 levels in the third and fourth quartiles had a higher risk of having diabetes (odds ratios= 2.31 and 4.00, respectively, P
