Impact of leptin levels in metabolic syndrome

Results: The results revealed that there was significant correlation between leptin level and body mass index, gender, fasting blood glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin, P < 0.01. [3,4] Different mechanisms in leptin resistance have been suggested, such as high levels of C-reactive protein, the downregulation of the leptin-activated signal transduction pathway, or a decrease in histone deacetylase activity. In addition to information regarding times of exercise habits per week, we measured for each individual's weight, height, and waist circumference using electronic scales (digital personal scale for orbit, up to 180 kg- DLS 0.004, precision, 0.1 kg), portable extendable stadiometer (B07CBKDM9T Seca), and non-elastic flexible measuring tapes with buckles, respectively. Waist circumference (WC) over 40 inches (men) or 35 inches (women), blood pressure over 130/85 mmHg or are taking blood pressure medication, fasting TG level over 150 mg/dl, fasting HDL< 45 mg/dl in men, and HDL
