The Study was carried out from August 2013 to February 2014.The patients' age was ranging from 35 to 64 years old. The results indicated a significant increase (p<0.05) in serum FBG and TSP-1 levels in diabetic patients in comparing with healthy groups. The results also revealed no significant differences (p> 0.05) in serum TSP-1 levels between males and females in both patients and healthy groups, while the results of FBG levels significantly (p<0.05) increase in females than males in both patients and healthy groups. The results have been shown significant positive correlation (P<0.05) between TSP-1 and FBG in (males and females), males, females DM patients.
