value for difference between men and women was calculated from the Mann–Whitney test: ϕvs. men. value for difference among glucose levels (NGT, IFG, IGT, IFG-IGT, and diabetes) in men, women, and total sample was calculated from the Kruskal–Wallis test: vs. NGT group, #vs. IFG group, and vs. IGT group. NGT, normal glucose tolerance; IFG, impaired fasting glucose; IGT, impaired glucose tolerance.
