Data presented as mean (standard deviation). Comparative analysis was performed by Student's t-tests or Mann–Whitney U test (p < 0.05). VLDL: very low-density lipoprotein; IDL: intermediate density lipoprotein; HDL: high-density lipoprotein; LDL: low-density lipoprotein; non-IR group: individuals without insulin resistance; IR group: individuals with insulin resistance.
