ABSTRACT
Serum concentrations of leptin was investigated in 40 patients with ischemic stroke, in context of the size of the lesion and also in 40 non-diseased control, matched according to age, gender and waist hip ratio. Serum leptin concentrations were determined in ng/ml with ELISA and computer tomography [CT] scan was performed in patients to estimate lesion size in cms. Serum leptin concentrations were found to be significantly higher [p < 0.001] in stroke patients [51.61 +/- 1.39], compared with controls [37.76 +/- 1.207]. Moreover, positive correlation [r=0.93] existed between serum leptin level and infarction size in patients with stroke
