	SE	P-value
25(OH) vitamin D	0.01	0.001
Age	0.01	< 0.001
Sex	0.18	n.s.
BMI	0.03	< 0.001

Triglycerides	0.7	< 0.001
HOMA-IR	0.8	< 0.001
Fasting insulin	0.6	< 0.001

SE, standard error of β. P-values < 0.05 were considered significant. HOMA-IR, FBG and triglycerides, were considered as log-values in the analysis.

FBG, fasting blood glucose; HDL, high density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; HOMA-IR, homeostatis model assessment of insulin resistance.
