Plasma high molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin concentration by gender and age.
Open and closed symbols represent geometric mean of plasma HMW adiponectin concentration in men and women, respectively. Vertical lines denote 95% confidence intervals. The number of subjects for each subgroup is given alongside the symbols. P values for trend are given for men and women separately.
