Parameter estimates* from the final logistic regression modeling ( 𝑁 = 1 1 3 ).

Estimate 𝑃 valueOR95% CI

MVPA−1.2470.0350.29(0.10–0.92)
Fasting insulin (μU·mL−1)0.0860.0011.09(1.04–1.15)
2 hr glucose (mg·dL−1)0.0370.0041.04(1.01–1.06)

*Estimates represent the decrease in the log odds of IR in those children meeting the 2008 Guidelines for MVPA (≥60 min/day) compared with those who did not, and the increase in the log odds of IR with each unit increase in fasting insulin or in 2 hr glucose concentrations. Model was adjusted for age, sex, pubertal stage, and acculturation.
