Figure 1.
Endothelium-dependent vasodilation (EDV) and insulin resistance by weight and glycemia categories. EDV is plotted on the Y axis as the square root transformed percent change of leg blood flow with application of methacholine chloride. Clusters represent unadjusted group means (left), and estimated means following adjustment for age, sex and race (right). For both analyses the group means were statistically different by ANOVA; groups sharing the same symbol within each cluster are not different from each other on posthoc pairwise analyses. DM2 = type 2 diabetes; Dys = dysglycemic; NGT = normal glucose tolerant; NO = non-obese; OB = obese.
