Leptin as well as Free Leptin Receptor Is Associated with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Young Women

Table 3

The correlation between serum leptin, sOB-R, and both BMI and HOMA-IR in PCOS subjects.

Model	Unstandardized coefficients		Standardized coefficients
		Std. error	Beta
Leptin
(Constant)	−17.846	17.940		−0.995	0.336
HOMA	−1.716	1.553	−0.230	−1.105	0.287
BMI	2.252	0.742	0.631	3.034	0.008
sOB-R
(Constant)	63.849	7.452		8.567	0.000
HOMA	−1.267	0.699	−0.175	−1.812	0.074
BMI	−1.649	0.316	−0.505	−5.222	0.000

Dependent variables (constant): leptin (ng/mL) and sOB-R (ng/mL) in order. Regression analysis was used to analyze the effect of HOMA-IR and BMI on leptin and sOB-R in PCOS subjects. Two-tailed value less than 0.05 (<0.05) is significant.
