1 Elevated serum leptin levels are associated with low vitamin D, sarcopenic obesity, poor muscle strength, and physical performance in knee osteoarthritis. Vitamin D leptin Homo sapiens
2 Furthermore, high serum leptin was negatively associated with vitamin D and physical performance. Vitamin D leptin Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSIONS: Serum leptin levels were correlated with low vitamin D, reduced muscle strength and functional impairment, suggesting that serum leptin might serve as a biomarker reflecting physical performance in OA patients. Vitamin D leptin Homo sapiens
