Values are estimated mean (SE) for each group. BMI, body mass index; WC, waist circumference; % body fat, percent body fat determined by dual energy x-ray absorbtiometry; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; MAP, mean arterial pressure
1 controlled for age and sex
2 controlled for age, sex, and height
* P < 0.05 for group difference between ID and II
# P ≤ 0.05 for group difference between D carriers and II
a P < 0.05 for group difference between ID and both DD and II
