[Correlation of obesity with C-reactive protein, leptin and insulin sensitive index in children].

Objective: To study the correlation between obesity and hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP), leptin, and insulin sensitive index (ISI) in children.

Methods: The subjects included 69 obese volunteers and 30 age and gender-matched normal volunteers who were recruited from 13702 children aged 2 to 18 years in Xiangtan City by sampling survey. The body mass index (BMI), hsCRP, leptin, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and fasting insulin (INS) were tested, and then the ISI was calculated.
