Standard β coefficients for C-reactive protein (CRP) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) in association with fasting, 2 hours plasma glucose concentrations (mmol/L) and HbA1c (%) in individuals without a prior history of diabetes.

	Fasting plasma glucose	2 hours plasma glucose	HbA1c
Men (n = 1167)
CRP (mg/dL)	0.03	0.04	0.03
GGT (U/L)	0.02	0.11*	0.03
Women (n = 1607)
CRP (mg/dL)	0.08*	0.10†	0.06*
GGT (U/L)	0.15†	0.12†	0.04

Adjusted for age, school years, family history of diabetes, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, triglycerides, and low density lipoprotein cholesterol. CRP and GGT are logarithmic transformed. *P < .01, ^† P < .001.
