Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; HOMA-β, homeostasis model assessment of beta cell function; HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance; IGR, impaired glucose regulation; MnSOD, manganese-dependent mitochondrial superoxide dismutase; NGT, normal glucose tolerance; OGTT2h, 2-hr post-glucose load; SNP, single nucleotide polymorphism; T2D, type 2 diabetes mellitus.
