Data are unadjusted means ± SD¥ or medians (interquartile range). Values of serum insulin, serum c-peptide, and insulin-derived indices were logarithmically transformed prior to statistical analyses, and their effect sizes are presented as the increase/decrease in percent. Effect sizes (β) and p-values shown are for an additive genetic model and are adjusted for age and sex. CI, confidence interval; add, additive; AUC, area under the curve.
