Is obesity associated with decreasing levels of the circulating soluble leptin receptor in humans?
Obesity, in humans is associated with decreasing levels of the circulating soluble leptin receptor (SLR). The relationship of SLR with the degree of adiposity suggests that high SLR levels may enhance leptin action in lean subjects more than in obese subjects.
Incidence of PET incidentaloma is low in this large cohort of Indian patients. Nearly 27% of focal incidentaloma were malignant. There was no correlation between the SUVmax, size and malignancy.
