Background: Chronically elevated alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2MG) in the blood has been correlated with diabetes and the HbA1c profile; however, no systematic review has been conducted to evaluate the association of A2MG salivary levels and glycemia or HbA1c levels in diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2) patients.
Objective: To evaluate whether A2MG salivary levels are related to the glycemia or HbA1c levels in DM2 patients.
Design And Setting: Systematic review developed at Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU), Brazil.
