| Abstract | BACKGROUND: The association between leptin and bone mineral density (BMD) is controversial because of conflicting findings from previous studies. METHODS: This meta-analysis aimed to provide an overview of the serum leptin levels and BMD in a healthy population. We reviewed the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases until July 2014 for research on the association between leptin levels and BMD in healthy people. RESULTS: We included and analyzed 45 studies in this systematic review and meta-analysis. The pooled correlations between leptin and BMD were analyzed by using the method of the inverse of the variance. Leptin was positively associated with BMD and the bone mineral content (BMC), especially in postmenopausal women (pooled r: 0.13-0.49). Overall, high serum leptin levels were associated with higher BMD levels. CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis suggests that serum leptin levels are positively associated with BMD and BMC, especially in postmenopausal women. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
