Associations between leptin and adiponectin with age, BMI, diet and changing of weight in women.

Leptin Adiponectin
β 95% CI p + β 95% CI p +
Upper Lower Upper Lower
Age −0.251 −0.7 0.1 0.05 0.017 −0.2 0.3 0.92
BMI 0.802 3.2 6.4 <0.001 −0.289 −2.1 0.2 0.11

Changing of weight * −0.055 −7.7 7.3 0.96 0.281 −1.1 9.9 0.12

+ Multiple linear regression of end concentration of leptin (R2 = 0.62, Cohen’s f2 = 1.63, post hoc power analysis = 100%) and of adiponectin (R2 = 0.29, Cohen’s f2 = 0.41, post hoc power analysis = 78%), significant p-values are shown in bold; * “Changing of weight” is defined as weight change of more than one standard deviation (±1.3 kg) compared to baseline weight, β = standardized beta coefficient.
