Subject : strong association between serum levels of leptin and resistin non- diabetic saudi adult women 
Document Language : English 
Abstract : The obese subjects had significantly higher serum leptin (5.28 vs. 3.56 ng/ml; p = 0.012) and resistin (16.06 vs. 12.95 ng/ml; p = 0.0001) levels than non-obese subjects. The Bivariate Correlation Analysis between leptin and resistin was highly significant in the obese group (r = 0.784, p = 0.002). Findings from the above c o r relation analysis were further explored using Stepwise Multiple Linear Regression Analysis with resistin concentrations as the dependent variable; and leptin, waist, hip, height, and weight as the independent variables. The analysis demonstrated that the determinant of resistin concentration is leptin (r = 0.784, p = 0.002) in obese women
