Subjects with normal glucose tolerance are included in this analysis (n = 1704). Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation (for normal distribution) or as median (interquartile range)

Statistical significance was defined as a P value of <0.05 (Italic values)

FH family history of diabetes, WC waist circumference, SBP systolic blood pressure, DBP diastolic blood pressure, TC total cholesterol, TG triglycerides, FPG fasting plasma glucose, HOMA-IR and HOMA-B homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance and beta cell

P values are calculated by t test

a P values adjusted for age

b P values adjusted for age and BMI

cThese variables were log transformed for the analysis
