Extended Data Table 1.

Clinical characteristics of the Malmö Diet and Cancer Cardiovascular Cohort (MDC-CC).Data are given as mean ± standard deviation for normally distributed variables, and as median and interquartile range for fasting insulin concentration. Categorical data are presented as numbers (percentages). “N” denotes the number with complete data, thus, included in analyses. HOMA-IR, Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (fasting plasma insulin concentration x fasting blood glucose concentration/22.5).
