Association of DII, DII and metabolically healthy, and metabolically unhealthy Obesity in overweight and obese women (N = 228).
| MH | OR | 95% CI | P value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Crude model | DII | 1.675 | 0.862b, 3.255a | 0.128 | 
| Model 1 | 2.142 | 1.421, 2.850 | 0.040 | |
| Crude model | DIL | 0.763 | 0.396, 1.470 | 0.419 | 
| Model 1 | 2.674 | 1.001, 3.471 | 0.055 | |
MH metabolically healthy, OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval, DII dietary insulin index, and DIL dietary insulin load. P values are reported based on the binary logistic regression test and are considered significant at <0.05. For the dietary insulin index, upper amounts of the median (DII> 38.8228) are considered the reference group. For dietary insulin load, upper amounts of the median (DIL> 97155.6995) are considered the reference group. For metabolically healthy and metabolically unhealthy (outcomes), MUH (metabolically unhealthy) is considered the reference group. Model 1: adjusted for age, physical activity, BMI, and energy intake (Kcal). aUpper. bᵇLower.
