Effects of low-glycemic index diet on plasma adipokines in obese children – MD Linx
MDLinx original journal summary on Obesity, Pediatrics from Pediatric Research

Since a low-glycemic index (GI) diet may modulate adipocyte-produced adipokines linking to insulin resistance, researchers sought to compare the plasma adipokine concentrations of obese children on the low-GI diet and conventional diet. The stored plasma samples from the RCT of a low-GI vs conventional diet in obese children have been analyzed for adipokines: leptin, adiponectin, resistin, and visfatin.
