OBJECTIVES We sought to assess whether plasma adiponectin levels correlate with angiographic coronary lesion complexity in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).BACKGROUND Metabolic disorders, including diabetes metlitus and metabolic syndrome, are important risk factors for acute cardiovascular events, and adiponectin is a key molecule of metabolic disorders, with anti-atherogenic proper-ties. Low plasma adiponectin levels are associated with CAD and future incidence of myocardial infarction. The involvement of adiponectin in coronary plaque vulnerability, which may be reflected by angiographic complex lesions, remains to be elucidated.METHODS We measured plasma adiponectin levels in 207 men (152 with stable CAD and 55 with acute coronary syndromes [ACS]). Coronary lesions were classified as of simple or complex appearance.RESULTS Plasma adiponectin levels were significantly lower in stable CAI) patients with complex coronary lesions (n = 60) than in those with simple lesions (n = 92) (4.14 [range 2.95 to 6.02] vs. 5.27 [range 3.67 to 8.12] mu g/ml, p = 0.006). Multiple logistic regression analysis demonstrated that adiponectin level was independently associated with complex lesions (odds ratio 0.514, 95% confidence interval 0.278 to 0.951; p = 0.034). Polytomous logistic regression revealed that adiponectin correlated independently with both single and multiple complex lesions. Among patients with ACS, who had lower adiponectin levels than stable CAI) patients, those with multiple complex lesions had significantly lower adiponectin than those with a single complex lesion (3.26 [range 2.26 to 4.46] vs. 4.21 [range 3.36 to 5.41] mu g/ml, p = 0.032).CONCLUSIONS Plasma adiponectin levels are significantly associated with coronary lesion complexity in men with CAD. Low adiponectin levels may contribute to coronary plaque vulnerability.
