1From each subject only one cell type could be isolated from adipose tissue. Five to six subjects were used to quantify each of the different sub-fraction of cells in adipose tissue. In total, 28 subjects were used. 2KITT was available for 46 women. 3S-Adiponectin was available for 37 women.
N. A. = Not available.
