Correlations Between Sleep and Fasting Metabolic Markers (r Values)

AHI ODI
Matsuda index −0.07 −0.18
Hepatic IR 0.59a 0.74a
HOMA-IR 0.09 0.15
Adipose IR 0.39 0.49b
Insulin, μIU/L 0.12 0.22
Glucose, mg/dL −0.09 −0.33
Free fatty acids, μEq/L 0.53b 0.56b
Glycerol, μM/L 0.70a 0.75a
TGs, mg/dL 0.45 0.16
Waking cortisol, µg/dL 0.64a 0.49b
Evening cortisol, µg/dL 0.22 0.29

For the Matsuda index, a higher index indicates greater insulin sensitivity. For hepatic and adipose IR, higher indices indicate greater IR. Adipose IR refers to an estimate of adipose IR.
