Finally, fasting glucose levels were related to SCABD or OME adipose cell size (0.38˂rho˂ 0.43; 0.001˂p˂0.005) but were associated neither with the plasma A/L ratio (rho = −0.24; NS) nor to CD68 expression, irrespective of the fat depot (0.02˂rho˂0.24; NS). The gene discussed is CD68; the disease is otitis media with effusion.
