LEP and Insulin resistance: The adjusted logistic regression model in Table 4 shows that a higher DEDfo was strongly associated with having insulin resistance [odds ratio (OR) = 3.92, 95% CI: 1.66, 9.22, P < 0.01] and with higher odds of having higher concentrations of leptin (OR = 3.17, 95% CI: 1.01, 10.23, P = 0.04) and insulin (OR = 2.83, 95% CI: 1.28, 4.51, P = 0.01) (Table 3).
