“…All these studies prove that there is a relationship between obesity and infertility in women ,obesity has a negative effect on women's fertility. 1-weight loss, is associated with a significant improvement in pregnancy rates and live births in a group of obese women undergoing fertility treatment 14-There were no differences in serum levels of visfatin in comparison to normal weight women [24].…”

Infertility considered a big health problem with increasing prevalence, having several causes, some of these causes refer to adipose tissue abnormalities. Many substances secreted from white adipose tissue like leptin ,visfatin may have a role in several cases in infertility in women Objective:to answer questions concerned with the relation between lepin ,visfatin and omen's infertility through analysis of data from previous studies. Thwe strategy of this systematic review will be based on raising some research questions that give an idea about the relationship between leptin and visfatin level and women infertility. ‫ﻹ‬he research questions 1-Is there a relationship between obesity and infertility in women? 2-Is there a relationship between obesity and leptin and visfatin level ? 3-Is there a relationship between leptin and visfatin level and infertility in women ? 4-Is there a difference in leptin ,visfatin level between obese and non obese infertile women ? 5-How does leptin ,visfatin affect women's fertility?

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined as multiple risk factors including abdominal obesity, dyslipidaemia, abnormal glycaemia, and elevated blood pressure. The incidence of MetS and pathophysiological mechanisms underlying its development are still not fully understood. It is thought that the occurrence of MetS arises from the complex relationship between genetic and environmental factors. The aim of the study was to overview and summarise current knowledge regarding genetic determinants of MetS. Also analysed were the relationship between polymorphisms of the genes encoding selected adipokines (vaspin, chemerin, omentin) and the risk of MetS, as well as other metabolic disorders. The precise determination of MetS genotype is difficult because metabolic syndrome occurrence is a combination of multiple risk factors. A thorough understanding of pathomechanisms of MetS, involving selected adipokines, may in the future allow the use of these adipokines as potential biomarkers of metabolic disorder risk.

“…The inclusion criteria consisted of: being in the 2nd or 3rd trimester of pregnancy; 2 -having a single live pregnancy; 3 -having no chronic diseases; 4 -no use of any medications; 5 -uninterrupted fasting of at least 10 days during Ramadan; 6 -not smoking; 7 -having eating sahur (meal consumed predawn before starting day-time fasting during Ramadan); and 8 -having a normal body mass index (BMI) without excess weight [19][20][21][22][23][24][25].…”

“…Visfatin is secreted in the visceral adipose tissue and, by binding to the insulin receptors, creates an insulin-mimetic eff ect. Due to its substantive similarity in terms of sequence and functional aspects with nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAm-PRTase), an enzyme involved in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) biosynthesis from nicotinamide, visfatin is also named as NAMPT [19]. Studies have shown that, in cases of Type II diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and obesity, visfatin level increases.…”

Abstract:Objective: Our aim was to determine how Ramadan fasting eff ects serum Human NAD-dependent deacetylase sirtuin 1 (SIRT1/ SIR2L1) and visfatin levels during pregnancy. Materials and methods: Thirty-six patients were included in this case-control study. The patient group consisted of 18 pregnant women who were Ramadan fasting. Another healthy 18 pregnant women with matching pregnancy weeks and ages formed the control group. Blood samples were obtained from the patients for biochemical analyses and serum adipokine level measurements. Results: The mean sirtuin and visfatin levels in fasting pregnant women were 2.87 ± 0.95 and 60.18 ± 19.49 ng/mL, respectively, while the mean serum sirtuin and visfatin levels in the control group was determined to be 4.28 ± 1.45 and 23.26 ± 6.18 ng/mL, respectively. A statistically signifi cant diff erence was determined between the groups (p = 0.002, p = 0.0001). A correlation analysis provided a negative correlation between number of fasting days and sirtuin levels (r = 0.45, p = 0.005) and a positive correlation with visfatin levels (r = 0.73, p = 0.0001). Conclusion: As a result, while the serum sirtuin 1 level of pregnant women decreased due to fasting in Ramadan, we determined that their visfatin levels increased and this increase was in correlation with the days of fasting.
