                            <p>Objective The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship of ghrelin hormone with body mass index (BMI) in cohort of adult men and women subsequently categorized from normal weight to morbidly obese based on BMI criteria. The relationship among the total ghrelin, serum lipids and C-reactive protein (CRP) was also evaluated. Materials and Methods Two-hundred sixty men (n=151) and women (n=109) between the ages of 20 and 59 years were recruited from Sleep Disorder Center of Medicine Faculty of Süleyman Demirel University and of Isparta Gülkent State Hospital. Fasting plasma total ghrelin, CRP, serum lipids and glucose levels were measured after overnight fasting.ResultsGhrelin levels were found to be statistically significantly lower in obese subjects (P&amp;lt;0.001), Glucoselevels were clinically higher in obese subjects but notstatistically significant. Fasting plasma ghrelin wasnegatively correlated with BMI, cholesterol, triglyceride (TG) and CRP (r=-0,402, P&amp;lt;0,01; r=0,259, p=0,01;r=0,137, p=0,05; r=0,146, p=0,05), respectively). There was weak significant correlation between ghrelinand glucose (r=0,131, p=0,05).ConclusionObese subjects have low fasting ghrelin levels thatthey are significantly related to glucose, CRP, Cholesterol, triglyceride and body mass index. More prospective studies are needed to establish the role of ghrelin in the pathogenesis of human obesity.</p></trans-abstract>

Gereçve Yöntem: Isparta GülkentDevlet Hastanesi Göğüs Hastalıkları Uyku Laboratuarıve Süleyman DemirelÜniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Uyku Hastalıkları Merkezine başvuran 20-59 yaş arasıtoplam iki yüz altmış erkek (n = 151) ve kadın (n = 109) çalışmaya dahiledildi. Toplam grelin, CRP, serum lipitleri ve glukoz seviyeleri geceaçlığından sonra ölçüldü. Bulgular: Grelin düzeyleri obez olgularda istatistikselolarak anlamlı derecede düşük bulundu (P &amp;lt;0.001), Glikoz düzeyleri obezolgularda klinik olarak daha yüksekti ancak istatistiksel olarak anlamlıdeğildi. Açlık plazma grelin, VKİ, kolesterol, trigliserid ve CRP ile negatifkorelasyonlar gösterdi (sırasıyla, r = -0.402, P &amp;lt;0.01; 0,259, p = 0,01;0,137, p = 0,05; r = 0,146, p = 0,05). Grelin ve glukoz arasında zayıf anlamlıkorelasyon vardı (r = 0,131, p = 0,05). Sonuç: Obez bireylerin grelin düzeylerinin düşük olmasıglikoz, CRP, kolesterol, trigliserid ve vücut kitle indeksi ile anlamlıderecede ilişkilidir. Grelinin insan obezitesinin patogenezindeki rolünübelirlemek için daha ileriye dönük çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.</p></abstract>
