Comparative Evaluation of Lipid Profile, Leptin- and Adiponectinemia in Adolescents and Young Adults with Metabolic Syndrome
Journal Title: Здоров`я дитини - Year 2015, Vol 7, Issue 67
Abstract
We have studied the levels of lipids, leptin and blood adiponectin in 24 adolescents (16–18 years) and 24 patients aged 19–22 years with metabolic syndrome. Dyslipidemia of type 2b was detected in 62.5 % of patients from group 1 and in 79.2 % from group 2. Adolescents with metabolic syndrome had significantly increased leptin levels, irrespective of gender. In young adults, hyperleptinemia was more pronounced, to a greater extent in boys. A positive correlation has been established between leptin and atherogenic lipids, and a negative correlation — between adiponectinemia, leptinemia and lipid profile in both age groups.
