BMI, body mass index; WC, waist circumference; IL-1β, interleukin-1 beta; MCP-1, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1; TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor-α; hs CRP, high sensitivity C-reactive protein; VAT, visceral adipose tissue; PGC1α, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha; PGC1 β, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-beta; NDUFA, NADH dehydrogenase 1 alpha subcomplex subunit. Data are presented as Spearman’s R values.

* represents statistically significant correlation where the p-value < 0.01, and

** represents a statistically significant correlation where the p-value < 0.05.
