Correlation of the insulin resistance indexes

Insulin resistance indexes	Adiponectin (μg/mL) (n = 809)	Resistin (ng/mL) (n = 809)	AR index (n = 809)
HOMA-IR index	r = -0.2639	r = +0.2615	r = +0.3355
	P = 2.37 × 10-14 ***	P = 4.04 × 10-14 ***	P = 9.73 × 10-23 ***
QUICKI	r = +0.2736	r = -0.2844	r = -0.3530

Spearman's rho rank correlation test was used. Significant levels: P* < 0.05, P** < 0.01, P*** < 0.001. Note: r = Spearman's rho rank correlation coefficient; HOMA-IR = homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance; QUICKI = quantitative insulin sensitivity check index; AR = adiponectin-resistin.
