“…Some studies have shown that resistin levels correlated with determinants of metabolic syndrome while few other studies failed to report any correlation of resistin levels with metabolic parameters (Reilly et al 2005;Azuma et al 2003;Bienertova-Vasku et al 2014). Similarly, in the current study, there is no correlation between resistin and obesity markers.…”

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the resistin gene (RETN) are linked to obesity and resistin levels in various populations. However, results have been inconsistent. This study aimed to investigate association between polymorphisms in the resistin gene with obesity in a homogenous Malaysian Malay population. This study is also aimed to determine association between resistin levels with certain SNPs and haplotypes of RETN. A total of 631 Malaysian Malay subjects were included in this study and genotyping was carried out using Sequenom MassARRAY. There was no significant difference found in both allelic and genotype frequencies of each of the RETN SNPs between the obese and non-obese groups after Bonferroni correction. RETN rs34861192 and rs3219175 SNPs were significantly associated with log-resistin levels. The GG genotype carriers are found to have higher levels of log-resistin compared to A allele carriers. The RETN haplotypes (CAG, CGA and GA) were significantly associated with resistin levels. However, the haplotypes of the RETN gene were not associated with obesity. Resistin levels were not correlated to metabolic parameters such as body weight, waist circumference, body mass index, and lipid parameters. RETN SNPs and haplotypes are of apparent functional importance in the regulation of resistin levels but are not correlated with obesity and related markers.

“…Taken together, these data clearly suggest familial clustering of adiposity traits, including leptin, which could be best explained by the substantial pleiotropic genetic effects. It should be mentioned here, that these consistent results were observed despite the fact that substantial interpolation variation in circulating levels of biochemical factors, in particular leptin, is well known (Bienertova‐Vasku et al, ; Lindgarde et al, 2001; Pérez‐Bravo et al, ).…”

“…In previous studies, multi-faceted research on malnutrition related to hospitalized patients’ care were conducted. Various nutritional markers that can be used in nutritional screening include height, weight change, subcutaneous fat, and total body protein mass [ 19 ]. All of these nutritional markers are measured, in anthropometric assessments, as biochemical markers, to examine patient’s clinical condition, and to assess the ability to eat.…”

ObjectiveTo assess the nutritional status of Korean patients with spinal cord injury (SCI), identify the predictors of undernutrition, and investigate the relationship between undernutrition and clinical outcomes.MethodsA retrospective study design was used to determine the nutritional status of 130 patients over 19 years old admitted to the rehabilitation hospital of Yonsei University Health System between June 2015 and February 2017. The nutritional status was assessed using the malnutrition universal screening tool (MUST) and the spinal nutrition screening tool (SNST). The relationship between undernutrition and clinical outcomes was examined by comparing a low-risk group with an at-risk group using a t-test.ResultsAmong the SCI patients, 70 (50.8%) were confirmed with undernutrition based on the MUST scores, while 60 (46.2%) had undernutrition based on the SNST scores. It was found that undernutrition has an effect on functional outcomes.ConclusionWe assessed the undernutrition risk in Korean SCI patients, and found that approximately 50% of the patients were at risk of undernutrition. We also found that undernutrition can affect functional recovery.
