Furthermore, no correlations of adiponectin with ferritin concentrations and mHLA-DR expression were observed ( r = −0.11, P = 0.90, and r = 0.05, P > 0.99, respectively), whereas leptin tended to correlate with ferritin concentrations and mHLA-DR expression, although this did not reach statistical significance ( r = −0.19, P = 0.08, and r = 0.21, P = 0.053, respectively; Supplementary Fig. 3, http://links.lww.com/SHK/B589 ).

The sentences
Of note, we observed that leptin concentrations tended to relate to the inflammatory response through a negative correlation with ferritin concentrations and a positive correlation with mHLA-DR expression, both with borderline significance.
