Our study aimed to estimate visfatin hormone levels and lipid profile levels in some patients. The study group included 20 women with breast cancer and a control group of 10 healthy women. The hormonal and biochemical assays include visfatin hormone, total cholesterol (TC), TGS, LDL-C, HDL-C, and VLVL-C. The results showed a significant increase at (P≥0.05) in visfatin, TC, TGS, LDL-C, and VLDL-C in breast cancer patients compared to the control group, while HDL-C didn't show any significant difference between both groups.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
