RESUMO
In the current scenario, the importance of cardiac biomarkers in diagnosing, assessing, and managing people with cardiovascular discomfort is required. This cross-sectional study examined the relationship between serum leptin and resistin levels among obese people with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with varying body mass index (BMI). The cardio and diabetic biomarkers among the 77 Saudi patients with hypoxia who lived in the Asir region were analyzed in the study. The patients were categorized into three groups, namely, group 1 (control), group 2 (AMI with normal BMI), and group 3 (AMI with varying BMI). Our results showed a positive correlation between serum glucose, HbA1C, triglycerides, Troponin-I (cTnI), creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), leptin, and resistin in patients with AMI. We also observed significantly lower HbA1C, cholesterol, and insulin values in groups 2 and 3. A statistical difference between the groups with and without AMI and between the genders was noticed. BMI with leptin showed a positive connection in group 3 but no association was observed for groups 1 and 2. A stronger relationship between BMI and leptin levels in men in Group 3 than in women was observed. In all three groups, resistin levels did not correlate with BMI. Thus, circulating leptin concentrations do not significant impact AMI compared to participants with and without AMI. However, resistin levels were considerably higher in obese individuals with AMI. Therefore, we suggest that resistin can be used as a pro-inflammatory marker to detect AMI disorder with varying BMI and as a prognostic marker associated with AMI.
