Differences between blood biochemical parameters and respective diagnostic cutoffs in obese individuals carrying ADRB2 rs1042713 G allele.

Blood biochemical parametersMean (±SE)Diagnostic cutoff value

Fasting glucose (mmol/L)5.3 ± 0.35.6 [24]0.327
Fasting insulin (µU/mL)11.2 ± 1.310.6 [25]0.330
HOMA-IR2.8±0.31.7 [22]0.003
Total cholesterol (mmol/L)5.7±0.15.2 [26]0.001
Triglyceride (mmol/L)1.4±0.11.7 [24]<0.001
HDL cholesterol (mmol/L)1.5±0.11.0 [24]<0.001
LDL cholesterol (mmol/L)3.6±0.12.6 [26]<0.001
Total cholesterol/HDL cholesterol3.9 ± 0.1

The one-sample t-test was performed to assess the difference between blood biochemical parameters and respective diagnostic cutoffs was considered significant. HOMA-IR: homeostatic model assessment-insulin resistance; HDL: high-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein.
