Leptin and adiponectin levels at baseline survey and in the acute phase stratified for hospital survival in men and women. Leptin (ng/mL, panel a) and adiponectin (μg/mL, panel b) levels at baseline survey (open diamond) and in the acute phase (filled diamond) for survivors (men n = 37, women n = 62) and non-survivors (men n = 11, women n = 18). Data are presented as geometric means with 95% confidence intervals. B = baseline survey; A = acute phase. * p < 0.001 between baseline and acute phase
