Abstract

Mean visfatin levels were found significantly higher in SGA (p<0.001) and LGA (p<0.001) and adiponectin levels were found significantly lower in SGA group (p<0.001) than AGA group. SGA and LGA group had higher concentrations of insulin, HOMA-IR, total cholesterol in comparison to the AGA group. LGA group had higher visfatin, glucose and HOMA-IR (p<0.001, p<0.001 and p: 0.002; respectively) in comparison to the SGA group. According to correlation of visfatin to the other parameters, visfatin was negatively correlated with height in SGA groups (r:−0.49, p: 0.02), according to correlation of adiponectin to the other parameters, adiponectin was negatively correlated with insulin and HOMA-IR (r: −0.49, p: 0.02 and r: −0.549, p: 0.012) in SGA group.
