Parallelly, leptin concentrations were inversely correlated with Rel LTM (p < 0.001) and positively correlated with homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) (p < 0.001), inflammatory markers such as CRP (C-reactive protein) (p = 0.038), fibrinogen (p = 0.004) and TNF-alpha (p = 0.008), Rel FAT (p < 0.001), and BMI (body mass index) (p < 0.001) and weight (p < 0.001) (Table 4). This evidence concerns the gene TNF and Insulin resistance.
