Furthermore, acute s-IGF-II correlated negatively with hsCRP (r = −0.24, p < 0.001), and positively with LDL (r = 0.14, p = 0.002), but not with day of blood sampling (r = 0.02, p = 0.72), insulin resistance (HOMA-IR; r = −0.04, p = 0.43), or BMI (r = −0.03, p = 0.57). The gene discussed is IGF2; the disease is Insulin resistance.
