Leptin, Adiponectin and its Molar Ratio as a Biomarker in the Diagnosis of Metabolic Syndrome.

Background: In order to prevent the downstream effects of metabolic syndrome, it is essential to identify the disease in its early stage and to initiate early treatment.

Objective: To analyze the relationship of the adipocyte-derived hormones (adiponectin and leptin) with indices of metabolic syndrome diagnosis in Gujarati adult population.

Design And Setting: In this cross-sectional study, total 87 consecutive patients (44 metabolic syndrome positive and 43 metabolic syndrome negative) were recruited.

Utility of Heart-type Fatty Acid Binding Protein as a New Biochemical Marker for the Early Diagnosis of Acute Coronary Syndrome.

Introduction: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) refers to a constellation of clinical symptoms caused by acute myocardial ischemia. Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are major and growing contributors to mortality and disability in India.

Aims And Objectives: Especially patients with non-ACS-related troponin elevations have an adverse outcome and require careful patient management.
