Introduction: Circadian rhythms are the changes in biological processes occurring on a daily base, among them, the reactions involved in the metabolic homeostasis. Melatonin is the main circadian hormone, with increased levels at night. Impairment in circadian rhythms is evidenced by altered melatonin expression, and in adult age, this condition is associated to metabolic dysregulations. There is a possible link between regulating the circadian rhythm and glucose homeostasis through the melatonin pathways. We aim to examine the relationship between melatonin levels and the degree of obesity and metabolic syndrome, in children and adolescents at different pubertal stages. Methods: The study group will include twenty-four children and adolescents at various stages of pubertal development. Pa... view moreĀ»
