1. The hyperbolic relationship between fasting insulin and Si (A) and AIRg and Si (B) for NFG (FPG <5.6 mmol/l, n = 156) and for IFG (5.6–6.1 mmol/l, n = 63) and the hyperbolic relationship between fasting insulin and Si (C) and AIRg and Si (D) by Kg quartile.
The hyperbolic relationship between fasting insulin and Si (A) and AIRg and Si (B) for NFG (FPG <5.6 mmol/l, n = 156) and for IFG (5.6–6.1 mmol/l, n = 63) and the hyperbolic relationship between fasting insulin and Si (C) and AIRg and Si (D) by Kg quartile. The hyperbolic relationship between AIRg and Si is left and downward shifted in the IFG group compared with the NFG group and is progressively leftward and downward shifted with decreasing Kg, consistent with decreased β-cell function.
