Spearman rank correlation coefficients of adiponectin with autonomic nervous system indices and inflammatory cytokines.

* P value < 0,05 HFr: high frequency; LFr: low frequency; n.u.: normalized units; TNF-alpha: Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha There were significant correlations between leptin with some ANS assessment indexes in LVD group. Leptin level is associated positively with the LFr component and negatively with the HFr component in 24-hour Holter. No correlations between leptin and inflammatory cytokines were found. The values of correlations of leptin are shown in Table 7. Spearman rank correlation coefficients of adiponectin with autonomic nervous system indices and inflammatory cytokines.
