Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between plasma leptin levels and obesity,plasma glucose as well as insulin concentrations.Methods Fasting plasma leptin concentrations were measured with IRMA in 171 cases (including 84 type 2 DM,36 IGT,51 NGT;90 men,81 women),and oral glucose tolerance test was done in every case to measure plasma glucose and insulin concentrations.Height,body weight were measured to calculate body mass index (BMI).Results Fasting plasma leptin levels are correlated with BMI( r=0.6772,P
