Data are means±SE. P values refer to analysis of variance between genotype groups after log transformation of insulin, glucose, and HOMA-IR. For clarity, real values of these parameters are displayed.

*

Pooled from Obgen, Saint Vincent, Lille, Napoli, and Ile-de-France cohorts. †Pooled from Leangen and Growthgen cohorts. To convert values for insulin to picomoles per liter, multiply by 6; to convert values for glucose to millimoles per liter, multiply by 0.055.
