Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Women with visceral obesity may have hyperactivity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Since glucocorticoids are involved in the expression of the ob gene, this study was carried out to investigate the relationship between serum leptin and the activity of the HPA axis in women with different obesity phenotypes. DESIGN: Cross sectional clinical study. SUBJECTS: Fifteen obese (Body Mass...
