Age‐adjusted partial correlation between osteocalcin and selected factors in the cross‐sectional study
| Correlation coefficient | P‐value | |
|---|---|---|
| BMI | −0.258 | <0.001** |
| Total cholesterol | −0.105 | <0.001** |
| Triglyceride | −0.140 | <0.001** |
| HDL | 0.022 | 0.282 |
| LDL | −0.094 | <0.001** |
| Glucose | −0.082 | <0.001** |
| HOMA‐IR | −0.065 | 0.002* |
| Insulin | −0.079 | <0.001** |
Data were analyzed by correlation coefficient and P‐value. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.001 (partial correlation between osteocalcin and selected factors adjusted for age). BMI, body mass index; HDL, high‐density lipoprotein; HOMA‐IR, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance; LDL, low‐density lipoprotein.
