- Abstract
The article discusses research being done on the relationship between plasma adiponectin and hormone levels in obesity. It references a study by Susan E. Hankinson et al published in the 2007 issue of "Obesity." Estrogens were observed to be inversely associated with adiponectin levels. Free estradiol levels were reduced in women in the top compared with women in the bottom quartile of adiponectin levels.
