Note. FPG, fasting plasma glucose; OGTT, oral glucose tolerance test; IGR,
impaired glucose regulation. †Two-sided independent t-test (continuous variables)
or chi-square test (categorical variable) to determine the association between sex
and each variable. Bold font indicates statistical significance at the 0.05 level. ††
Effect size indicates strength of relationship between variables. |
