Data are mean ± SD or n (%). P values for nonnormally distributed data are based on log-transformed values (insulin). Other for self-reported race/ethnicity includes mixed, Asian, American Indian, and other. Significant comparisons (P < 0.05) across GRCs within each age-group or across age-groups within each GRC are highlighted in bold. GRC, glucose response curve; NA, not applicable; WC, waist circumference.
