Developmental Endothelial Locus-1, Platelet Count, and Soluble P-selectin in Overweight and Obese Subjects
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This observational study aims to detect serum levels of Developmental Endothelial Locus-1 (DEL-1), Platelet Count, and Soluble P-selectin (sP-sel) in Overweight and Obese Subjects.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
-
Is there a difference in serum DEl-1 levels in overweight and obese subjects compared to normal subjects?
-
Are there any relations between serum DEL-1 levels, sP-sel, and platelet count in overweight and obese subjects ?
