Is low adiponectin state associated with metabolic abnormalities in obese children , particularly depending on apolipoprotein E phenotype?
Low adiponectin concentration is associated with insulin resistance in obese children. Furthermore, decreased adiponectin with E3/3 exhibited more prominent downstream metabolic abnormalities in obese boys than in obese girls.
these findings indicate that both the decrease in blood pressure and the unstable nature of the blood pressure response following upright tilt are useful predictors of falls in older people.
