Four males and 6 females are included in Table, with mean age 46±12 years old. Data are presented as mean±SD. BMI indicates body mass index; HbA1c, glycated hemoglobin; HDL‐C, high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; HOMA‐IR, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance; hs‐CRP, high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein; LDL‐C, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; OGTT, oral glucose tolerance test; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; WC, waist circumference.
