Genes significantly correlated (Spearman's ρ ≥ 0.3, and P value <0.0001) with PFAT after adjusting for age, gender, and ethnicity in all nondiabetic subjects (n = 136) are shown. Correlation and significance of genes represented by multiple probes in the array are shown as minimum (min) and maximum (max) from Spearman's correlation analysis.
