ABSTRACT: Background
Adiponectin and Resistin correlate with insulin sensitivity and cardiovascular risk, respectively. This study aimed to identify lifestyle factors that modulate changes in Adiponectin and Resistin levels after gastric banding positioning (LapGB).Materials and methods
Before (T0), 3 months (T3), 6 months (T6), and 12 months (T12) after LapGB, serum Adiponectin and Resistin levels were evaluated in a single-centre prospective study including a cohort of 27 non-diabetic obese subjects (S-Ob, BMI ≥35 kg/m2). After surgery, a dietitian checked the adherence of S-Ob to an Apulian hypocaloric diet (aphypoD)/physical activity (phA) and, according to their high or low compliance to aphypoD/phA, S-Ob were included in group 1 (n = 14) or 2 (n = 13) respectively.
