Notes: Group 1: atorvastatin at a dose of 20 mg/day. Group 2: atorvastatin at a dose of 40 mg/day. Results are presented as median (Me) and 25% and 75% quartiles: Me (Q1;Q3). Numbers 1–9 shown in parentheses in the column headings correspond with the subscript numbers 1–9 shown next to the P-values.

Abbreviation: QUICKI, quantitative insulin sensitivity check index.
