Serum haptoglobin correlates positively with cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations in an obese Mongolian population.

CONCLUSION: The degree of obesity strongly affects the relationships between serum HP concentrations and several genetic, anthropometric and metabolic factors. These results suggested that we need to take into account the degree of obesity when considering the HP polymorphisms as predictive markers for clinical states.
