Özet

Objective: There is an increasing evidence that glucagon and growth hormone (GH)-insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis may play an important role in glucose metabolism since early stages of glucose intolerance. Carotid intima media thickness is a marker for subclinical atherosclerosis. We aimed to evaluate glucagon, GH and IGF-1 in prediabetic states and their relationship with carotid intima media thickness.
