  • Data are presented as the mean±SD values.

  • The comparison of parameters between high-risk and low-risk groups was performed using the Mann-Whitney U test.

  • AUC, area under the curve; BMI, body mass index; GDR, glucose disposal rate; HbA1c, glycated hemoglobin; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HOMA-beta, homeostatic model assessment beta-cell function ; HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; N.S., not significant; PDX-1, pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor-1; T2DM, type 2 diabetes mellitus.
