- Abstract
The article discusses research on the role of metabolic factors as predictors of inflammation, adhesion and coagulation in healthy younger-aged adults. The researchers found that having a higher body mass index (BMI) also means having elevated biomarkers of inflammation, adhesion and coagulation, although female gender, insulin resistance and lipid levels were also related to the biomarkers.
