This document summarizes a study conducted in India that examines the relationship between serum orexin levels and various metabolic markers in women of reproductive age. The study found that there is a positive correlation between serum orexin levels and weight, BMI, waist circumference, and serum glucose levels. However, there is a weak negative correlation between serum orexin levels and serum insulin levels. The study suggests that orexin neuropeptide may be involved in the development of metabolic syndrome and that orexin antagonists could potentially be used as a treatment for metabolic disorders. The study acknowledges its limitations and recommends further research with a larger sample size. [Extracted from the article] |
