Unless otherwise specified, data are presented as mean ± SD. p-Values were calculated using Student’s T-test and Fisher’s Exact test BMI, body mass index; F/M, female/male; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HbA1c, glycated hemoglobin; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; n, number of subjects with available measurements; ND, non-diabetic; T2D, Type 2 diabetes; TGL, triglycerides; WHR, waist-to-hip ratio. Statistically significant p-values are in bold font.
