The expression levels of CMKLR1 are in relative units [ (min–max)]. Data are shown in ± SD and were classified by tertiles. aDifference versus first tertile (P < 0.05, ANOVA, Tukey post hoc). IR: insulin resistance. VAI: visceral adiposity index; HOMA-IR: homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance; NEFA: nonesterified fatty acids.
