  1. Data shows mean ± standard deviation. The values in parentheses indicate the minimum and maximum values. Fasting glucose and fasting insulin indicate fasting values of glucose and insulin, respectively; and 2-h glucose and 2-h insulin indicate values of blood glucose and insulin 2 h after glucose ingestion, respectively.
