Note: Overall models adjusted for age, pubertal stage, sex, race/ethnicity and socioeconomic status. Models including IAAT were adjusted for total fat. AIRg models included SI as a covariate, blood pressure models included height as a covariate, and HDL-C models included triglyceride concentration as a covariate.

IAAT = intra-abdominal adipose tissue; SAAT = subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue; BP = Blood pressure; SI= insulin sensitivity Index; AIRg= acute insulin response to glucose; insulin= fasting insulin; TG= triglyceride concentration; HDL-C = high density lipoprotein cholesterol.
