Serum concentrations of IL-1RA increases with obesity and glucose intolerance and are not altered by gender. (A) Fasting serum levels of IL-1RA in normal weight (NW) subjects and patients with obesity. (B) Effect of gender on serum IL-1RA levels. (C) Serum levels of IL-1RA in individuals with NW, obesity and normoglycemia (OB-NG), and obesity and impaired glucose tolerance or T2D (OB-IGT&T2D). Boxes represent first and third quartiles and median, with whiskers showing 10–90 percentile. Statistical differences between groups were analyzed by unpaired Student’s t test or ANOVA followed by LSD tests. ***P<0.001.
