α-Hydroxybutyrate Is an Early Biomarker of Insulin Resistance and Glucose Intolerance in a Nondiabetic Population
Figure 4
Classification of subjects according to insulin sensitivity and plasma glucose regulation.
Schema showing the partitioning of the 399 subjects into groups according to the results of the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), fasting plasma glucose levels (FPG) and M values derived from the clamp. NGT, normal glucose tolerant; IGT, impaired glucose tolerant; NGT-IS, normal glucose tolerant and insulin sensitive (MFFM>45 µmol·min−1·kgFFM−1); NGT-IR, normal glucose tolerant and insulin resistant (MFFM≤45 µmol·min−1·kgFFM−1); IFG, normal glucose tolerant and impaired fasting glucose.
