Objective: Adiponectin, a novel adipokine with antiinflammatory and insulin‐sensitizing
properties, has an important role in glucose metabolism and is negatively correlated with …

Objective Adiponectin is secreted from adipose tissue. This hormone has a fundamental role
in pathogenesis of insulin resistance, and has anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic …

Objective: This study aimed (a) to investigate the relationship between the degree of obesity
and serum adiponectin, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)− α, leptin, insulin levels and the lipid …

High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels are closely associated with adiposity and
predict coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, relationships of CRP …

Purpose Leptin and adiponectin are adipokines presenting a wide range of impacts,
including glycemic balance regulations. Insulin is one of the main regulators of adipose …

Context: Children with obesity and insulin resistance (IR) have decreased adiponectin and
have increased cardiovascular risk. Adiponectin has antiatherogenic effects, but its …

Background: Recently, the leptin/adiponectin (L/A) ratio has been suggested as a novel
predictor of cardio-metabolic and other chronic diseases. Aim: To evaluate the ability of …

BACKGROUND: Low levels of adiponectin have been associated with metabolic risk factors
(RF) and cardiac disease. Minimal data is available about the relationship between …

Objective: Childhood obesity linked to metabolic alterations, tend to appear simultaneously
with altered adipocytokines, suggesting a role in pathogenetic development. Low circulating …

Background Adiponectin links obesity with insulin resistance, which causes various
metabolic abnormalities including dyslipidaemia. Apolipoprotein E (apoE) phenotypes also …
