Controversial culprit of leptin in obesity hypertension: clues from a case-control study with Chinese newly diagnosed adult early-onset obesity hypertensives.

Objective: To explore the role of leptin in the onset and development of obesity-associated hypertension.

Subjects And Methods: A case-control study that had finished recruiting 153 subjects divided as four characteristic groups. Leptin serum levels were tested by ELISA in these subjects among these four characteristic Chinese adult physical examination groups.

The value of adiponectin-resistin (AR) index in newly diagnosed obesity hypertension: a case control study among Chinese adult.

Objective: To explore the role of adiponectin-resistin (AR) index as a better indicator of obesity-related hypertension.

Method(s): This study continued a case control study that had finished recruiting 153 subjects divided as four characteristic groups. Fasting serum resistin levels (FSR) and Fasting serum adiponectin levels (FSA) were tested by ELISA.

The paradox of the role of resistin in early-onset obesity hypertension: A comparative study among four Chinese adult subgroups.

To explore the role of resistin in the onset and development of obesity-related hypertension. Resistin serum levels were tested by ELISA in 153 adult subjects among four characteristic Chinese adult physical examination groups. Waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure (SB), diastolic blood pressure (DB), and other clinical laboratory data were collected.

A comparative research on obesity hypertension by the comparisons and associations between waist circumference, body mass index with systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and the clinical laboratory data between four special Chinese adult groups.

Background: The obesity-hypertension pathogenesis is complex. From the phenotype to molecular mechanism, there is a long way to clarify the mechanism. To explore the association between obesity and hypertension, we correlate the phenotypes such as the waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure (SB), and diastolic blood pressure (DB) with the clinical laboratory data between four specific Chinese adult physical examination groups (newly diagnosed untreated just-obesity group, newly diagnosed untreated obesity-hypertension group, newly diagnosed untreated just-hypertension group, and normal healthy group), and the results may show something.

Differential Regulation of Gene and Protein Expression by Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles in Hen's Ovarian Granulosa Cells: Specific Roles of Nanoparticles.

Annually, tons and tons of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are produced in the world. And they are applied in almost all aspects of our life. Their release from the products into environment may pose issue for human health.
