It can be concluded that sOB-R has a modulatory effect on leptin in PEM children during nutritional recovery and participates in their adaptive survival mechanisms. Leptin and the molar excess of sOB-R over leptin are better biomarkers of nutritional status than IGF-I in PEM children during nutritional recovery.
