Table 3. Multivariate stepwise linear regression analysis with Ln insulin sensitivity index (ISI_OGTT) as dependent variable.

Independent variable	Beta coefficient	Standard error	t	p value
Fasting proinsulin ^a	−0.365	0.065	−5.225	<0.001
Adiponectin ^a	0.295	0.006	4.008	<0.001
hsCRP ^a	−0.236	0.017	−3.268	0.001
TG ^a	−0.162	0.058	−2.171	0.032
SPARC ^a	−0.156	0.052	−2.201	0.030

Independent variables included in the model were pre-BMI, gestational age, systolic blood pressure, triglycerides, SPARC, adiponectin, fasting proinsulin, hsCRP, WBC count and ALT. ^a Skewed distributions were logarithmically transformed for analysis. ISI_OGTT: insulin sensitivity index; hsCRP, hypersensitive C reaction protein; TG, triglyceride; SPARC, secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine.
