Data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation and N (%). NGT, normal glucose tolerance; T2D, type 2 diabetes; BMI, body mass index; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HbA1c, hemoglobin A1c. The difference in sex ratios was analyzed using the X2 test. Differences in means were analyzed using Student's t-tests. Significant p values (p < 0.05) are reported in bold. aFPG values were available in 3754 NGT and 376 T2D participants.
bHbA1c values were available in 1620 NGT and 246 T2D participants.
