All values are means; 95% CI in parentheses. Values were adjusted for age at screening, race-ethnicity, education, Hormone Therapy trial arm, baseline BMI, and baseline glucose or insulin concentration. HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance; QUICKI, quantitative insulin sensitivity check index. Means and 95% CIs are based on least-squares means estimated from linear regression models.
