leptin: The Tetrad BMI, Leptin, Leptin/Adiponectin (L/A) Ratio and CA-15-3 is a Reliable Biomarker of Breast Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Objective:
Evaluate body mass index (BMI), leptin, Leptin/adiponectin (L/A) ratio and cancer antigen (CA) 15-3 together as reliable biomarkers for breast cancer.
Patients:
Consecutive patients aged between 40 - 60 years, with breast disease and informed consent.
Interventions:
Patients' Anthropometric and laboratorial characteristics classified by BMI in the group of cancer and patients with benign breast disease as well as biochemical tests of leptin, adiponectin,CA 15-3, hemoglobin, glucose low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) levels were obtained as well as a blood sample to analyze CA 15-3 levels with a electrochemiluminescence immunoassay.
Hypothesis:
Using together leptin, L/A ratio, CA 15-3 and BMI could offer a reliable approach to detect high risk women to develop breast cancer.

Detailed Description
Serum levels of leptin, adiponectin and CA 15-3, as well as anthropometric and biochemical parameters were analyzed in 88 female patients attending mammography study. Predictive values of BMI, leptin, L/A ratio and CA 15-3 were determined with 95% confidence interval (CI).
