Discovery of lipid profiles of type 2 diabetes associated with hyperlipidemia using untargeted UPLC Q-TOF/MS-based lipidomics approach

The incidence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is rising rapidly and has become an important public health problem. According to reports, people with T2D often have hyperlipidemia. Hence, in the current study, a plasma non-targeted lipidomics method was used to study the differences in lipid profile between 36 T2D-associated hyperlipidemia patients and 43 healthy controls by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight...
