Running a Marathon Induces Changes in Adipokine Levels and in Markers of Cartilage Degradation – Novel Role for Resistin
Figure 4
Associations of change in YKL-40 with pre-marathon level of resistin and change in resistin.
Marathon induced change in YKL-40 was positively correlated with pre-marathon level of resistin, i.e. high baseline resistin predicted large increase in YKL-40 levels after the marathon (a). Change in YKL-40 level was also positively correlated with change in resistin concentration (b). Pearson or Spearman correlation analyses were used where appropriate, n = 46.
