p-values were calculated with the Kruskal Wallis test and One-way analysis of variance test.
a,b,c
There is no difference between groups with the same letters (p > 0.05). Different letters indicate significantly different groups (p < 0.05).
VA
One-way analysis of variance test statistic. NW: normal weight; OW: overweight; NLR: neutrophil lymphocyte ratio; PLR: platelet lymphocyte ratio; C: cholesterol; FBG: fasting blood glucose; FI: fasting insulin; TT: total testosterone; WC: waist circumference, WHR: waist-hip ratio; FGS: Ferriman-Gallwey score.
