Data presented as mean (standard deviation) and median (p25-p75). Comparative analysis was performed by Student's t-tests or Mann–Whitney U test (p < 0.05). TC: total cholesterol; HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; TAG: triacylglycerol; TAG/HDL-C: ratio between TAG and HDL-C; APO AI: apolipoprotein AI; APO B: apolipoprotein B; non-IR group: individuals without insulin resistance; IR group: individuals with insulin resistance.
