Low Plasma Leptin and High Soluble Leptin Receptor Levels Are Associated With Mild Cognitive Impairment in Type 2 Diabetic Patients

Low Plasma Leptin and High Soluble Leptin Receptor Levels Are Associated With Mild Cognitive Impairment in Type 2 Diabetic Patients

Background: Metabolic disturbances, such as hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and obesity, are thought to be risk factors for Alzheimer's disease.Objective: This study aimed to investigate whether adipokine leptin and soluble leptin receptor (sOBR) levels are correlated with mild cognitive impairm...
