  1. BMI, body mass index; HbA1c, glycated hemoglobin A1c; Hs-CRP, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; LPL, lipoprotein lipase. Values are means ± SD. Adiponectin values were transformed into logarithmic values. *p < 0.0001, †p< 0.001, ‡p < 0.01, §p <0.05 vs. men (Welch’s t-test). All data were derived from 45 subjects (men 26, women 19) except LPL mass (total 21, men 15, women 6).
