Serum interleukin-18 levels are associated with physical activity in Japanese men.

<h4>Objective</h4>To investigate the link between serum interleukin-18 (IL-18) levels and physical activity in Japanese men.<h4>Methods</h4>A total of 81 men (45.7±17.6 years old) was enrolled in this cross-sectional investigation study. We assessed anthropometric and body co...
