Adjusted correlations of residuals of RQ and substrate oxidation with adipose OEA.
Association analysis of OEA with residuals of (a) 24-hour RQ, (b) 24-hour lipid
oxidation, and (c) 24-hour carbohydrate oxidation in Native Americans of full
Southwestern heritage. Twenty-four-hour RQ was adjusted for age, sex, energy balance,
and percentage body fat. Twenty-four-hour lipid and carbohydrate oxidation were
adjusted for age, sex, energy balance, FM, and FFM (25). OEA concentration was log10-transformed to reduce the
influence of extreme values on the multivariate model. Pearson correlation
(r) reported. Due to incomplete EE and/or lipid assessment in
adipose tissue, the number of individuals included here in the presented analyses
differed from the overall group of 21 Native Americans of full Southwestern heritage.
Compared with the latter, these participants were not different regarding age, sex,
FM, FFM, body mass index, percentage body fat, glucose regulation, and AEA, 2-AG, and
OEA tissue and plasma concentrations (all P > 0.05).
