Circulating chemerin and interleukin-6 in children with obesity: possible metabolic risk predictors
The elevated levels of serum chemerin and IL-6 in children with obesity were positively correlated with multiple metabolic indicators, suggesting that chemerin and IL-6 may be involved in the occurrence of childhood obesity and its complications, and were expected to become early warning metabolic risk predictors.
