The relationship between the GH/IGF-I axis and serum markers of bone turnover metabolism in healthy children.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Adiponectin and resistin have been linked to inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and/or insulin secretion or resistance. It remains to be elucidated which of these adipokines is associated primarily with biomarkers of all or only some of these categories, i.e. biomarkers of inflammation, endothelial dysfun...
