Abstract:
Objective:To explore effect of serum leptin level on nutriture in the patient of chronic renal failure(CRF)and the relation with TCM syndrome types of CRF.Methods:110 cases in CRF group were divided into 5 subtypes and 30 normal persons were used as control group.Serum leptin level,body height,body weight,and body mass index(BMI)were determined in both groups;and serum albumin,serum pre-albumin,transferin,serum creatinine,urea nitrogen,C-reaction protein,blood insulin,and nutrition risk index(NRI)were detected in CRF group.Results:Serum leptin level in CRF group was higher than that in the control group,and leptin level and nutritional index level in both the subtype groups of Qi-and Yang-deficiency of spleen and kidney were significantly different with those in other 3 subtype groups.Conclusion:High blood leptin is possibly one of the reasons inducing malnutriture of CRF patient,and serum leptin is possibly a partial basis of substances of Qi-and Yang-deficiency syndrome of CRF.
