CI confidence interval, LL lower limit, UL upper limit, SE standard error.

N = 110 (Insulin-sensitive = 57, Insulin-resistant = 53). Sex (0 = male, 1 = female), Group (0 = insulin-sensitive, 1 = insulin-resistant).

aScores were z-standardized for better interpretation.

bGlucose variability was measured by the coefficient of variation (CV) which was log-transformed to correct right-skewed data.
