Figure 5

Relationship of the serum levels of IL-12 with systemic low-grade inflammation markers. Serum IL-12 showed a positive significant association with circulating levels of TNF-α (a), but not with leptin (b). Coefficients (r) and P values were calculated by the Spearman’s correlation model. The correlation level was considered significant when .
