Longitudinal association between serum leptin concentration and glomerular filtration rate in humans.
<h4>Background</h4>Obesity is a risk factor for decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR). One proposed mechanism leading to glomerulopathy is an increase in leptin levels. However, the association between leptin and GFR has never been demonstrated. The aim of this study is to verify w...
