Correlation Between Serum Leptin Levels and Fasting Insulin Levels in Type 2 Diabetes / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the relationship between serum leptin levels and insulin levels in type 2 diabetes.Methods Serum leptin concentrations were measeured by radioimmunoassay,body mass index(MBI),mean arterial blood pressure(MBP),waist to hip ratio(WHR),fasting plasma glucose(FPG),fasting serum insulin(FINS),total cholesterol(Tch),triglycerides(TG),LDL-C,HDL-C,HbA1c levels were determined in 20 obese diabetic patients(BMI≥25kg/m 2) and 20 non-obese diabetic patients with BMI0 05).⑵No matter what,in diabetic groups or in non-diabetic groups the serum leptin levels were higher in obese subjects than in non-obese individuals(P
