Abstract

This study explored the link between insulin sensitivity, insulin resistance and leptinaemia in people with prediabetes with and without non‑alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). A total of 143 prediabetes patients were evaluated in the study. Ultrasonography was used for diagnosis of NAFLD, and fasting insulin, postprandial insulin, leptin levels, common clinical/biochemical determinations were determined. In total, 69 (48.25%) of the patients were diagnosed with NAFLD and 74 (51.75%) without NAFLD. Leptin values correlated statistically with fasting insulin in prediabetes patients, while in the patients that were also diagnosed with NAFLD the correlation was stronger. Values of log‑leptin <1 ng/ml were found in 64% of patients with prediabetes without NAFLD, and in 2% of patients with prediabetes and NAFLD. In the context of the association between serum leptin levels and a worse biochemical profile in prediabetes patients on one hand, and fatty liver disease and a worse biochemical profile in prediabetes patients on the other, leptin can be considered a possible candidate molecule that mediates the biochemical alterations identified in these patients.
