Background: Imbalanced production of adipokines as leptin and adiponectin in diabetic patients may lead to the development of metabolic complications. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effects of 2-month of caffeine ingestion along with aerobic training on changes in serum leptin and adiponectin levels and leptin/adiponectin ratio (LAR) in type 2 diabetic men. Methods: Thir...
