Patients experiencing carbohydrate disorders, such as prediabetes and recently diagnosed diabetes, exhibited notably elevated serum sortilin levels when compared to individuals with normal blood sugar levels (0.74 ng/mL [IQR = 0.67–0.90] vs. 0.34 ng/mL [IQR = 0.22–0.67], p = 0.003) (Figure 3). This evidence concerns the gene SORT1 and prediabetes syndrome.
