In addition, circulating CILP-2 levels were correlated positively with waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), TG, fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2-h blood glucose after glucose overload (2h-BG), HbA1c, fasting insulin (FIns), 2-h plasma insulin after glucose overload (2h-Ins), and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) but negatively with HDL-C (Supplementary Table S1). The gene discussed is INS; the disease is Insulin resistance.
