Data are means±SE. Estimates of regression coefficients were calculated for a BMI of 35 kg/m2. This modeling shows the expected influence of BMI and the consistent influence of the −359 genotype on insulin resistance. It also shows a significant modification of the HOMA-BMI relationship by the −359 genotype.

*

Estimate of regression coefficient, mean±SE.

Overall significance for the pooled 5 obese cohorts.

Using a mixed-effects model was used to account for potential center effects when pooling the 5 cohorts together. The value of P < 0.0000 is the lowest possible generated by the use of the latter model.
