description | <p>Abstract</p> <p>Objective</p> <p>The study examined changes in and relationship between body mass index (BMI), leptin and adiponectin levels over a 3-year period in a pediatric population-based cohort.</p> <p>Study design</p> <p>A 3-year prospective cohort study of 268 boys and 251 girls aged 9–10 in Ina, Saitama, Japan.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Median body mass index (BMI) significantly increased from baseline (age 9–10) to follow up (age 12–13) in boys from 17.1 to 18.3 kg/m<sup>2 </sup>(<it>P </it>< 0.001) and in girls from 16.5 to 18.5 kg/m<sup>2 </sup>(<it>P </it>< 0.001), respectively. Adiponectin values significantly decreased from baseline to follow up in boys (13.5 to 8.9 μg/ml, respectively) (<it>P </it>< 0.001) and in girls (12.4 to 9.5 μg/ml, respectively) (<it>P </it>< 0.001). Leptin values at follow up significantly decreased from baseline in boys (4.9 to 2.3 ng/dl, respectively) (<it>P </it>< 0.001) and also in girls (5.3 to 5.1 ng/dl, respectively) (<it>P </it>= 0.049).</p> <p>A relatively strong correlation was seen in BMI (Spearman's correlation coefficient, <it>r </it>= 0.864, <it>P </it>< 0.001 in boys; <it>r </it>= 0.873, <it>P </it>< 0.001 in girls), adiponectin (<it>r </it>= 0.705, <it>P </it>< 0.001 in boys; <it>r </it>= 0.695, <it>P </it>< 0.001 in girls), and leptin (<it>r </it>= 0.449, <it>P </it>< 0.001 in boys; <it>r </it>= 0.610, <it>P </it>< 0.001 in girls) before and after the three-year period.</p> <p>The ratio of follow up to baseline BMI was negatively correlated with that for adiponectin (<it>r </it>= -0.224, <it>P </it>< 0.001 in boys; <it>r </it>= -0.165, <it>P </it>= 0.001 in girls) and positively correlated with that for leptin (<it>r </it>= 0.518, <it>P </it>< 0.001 in boys; <it>r </it>= 0.609, <it>P </it>< 0.001 in girls).</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>This study demonstrated that baseline adiponectin, leptin and BMI values measured at ages 9–10 correlated with those measured three years later.
