Exploring the link between leptin levels and metabolic syndrome in elderly Indian patients: Implications for family medicine and primary care practices.
Background: The metabolic syndrome (MetS), according to the Adult Treatment Panel III of the National Cholesterol Education Programme, is a collection of metabolic abnormalities that includes one, two, or all three of the following traits: obesity in the abdomen, dyslipidemia, hypertension, fasting blood sugar, or insulin resistance. This study's aim was to assess the relationship between fasting serum leptin and MetS in elderly adults with T2DM in the Northern Indian population.
Material and methods: The following information was collected from all the participants: (1) anthropometric data, (2) biochemical data, and (3) a lifestyle questionnaire on sociodemographic data, dietary practices, smoking, and alcohol intake to identify their risk factors for diabetes mellitus, CVD, and hypertension.
Results: A total of 36 older participants (56.30%) had a history of hypertension, while 29 elderly participants (44.61%) had diabetes mellitus. A total of 32 elderly participants (49.2%) had MetS, and this group had higher serum leptin (P 0.003), body weight (P = 0.019), BMI (P 0.001), waist circumference (P 0.001), CRP (P = 0.021), insulin (P = 0.001), and HOMA-IR (P = 0.003) values as well as higher percentages of females (P = 0.001), and those with type 2 diabetes mellitus (P = 0.002) and hypertension (P = 0.039) than those in the non-MetS group.
Conclusion: In older persons with T2DM, our study discovered a favorable correlation between serum leptin and MetS. It can act as a standalone indicator of MetS, offering a way to spot populations at risk for associated consequences and enabling early intervention.
