<br/><br/> The present study specifically addresses the relationship between microcirculation and metabolic syndrome, a cluster of metabolic and cardiovascular modifications highly prevalent in the general population. The aim of the study was to assess skin microcirculation in a rat model of metabolic syndrome (fructose induced insulin resistance) and detect the effect of metformin treatment on various parameters of metabolic syndrome and microcirculation impairment
