Values are presented as mean±standard error of the mean, analysis of covariance for continuous variables. HOMA-IR was log transformed because it was not normally distributed.
Linear regression analysis adjusted for P for trend.
AN, Acanthosis nigricans; BMI, body mass index; HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment-estimated insulin resistance; VAT, visceral adipose tissue.
Model 1: adjusted for sex and age. Model 2: adjusted for sex, age and BMI z-score. Model 3: adjusted for sex, age and HOMA-IR. Model 4: adjusted for sex, age and VAT.
