Voice characteristics in women with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The study was designed to examine the effect of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on adiponectin and leptin levels. We have previously demonstrated that PCI triggers a systemic inflammatory response. We hypothesized that inflammation participates in the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus and the metabol...
