Model 1 had no adjusted variable. Model 2 is adjusted for age, BMI, TG, and HDL-C. Model 3 is adjusted for model 2 plus DAO and TNF-α. : value, ; Gutt-ISI: Gutt-insulin sensitivity index; DAO: diamine oxidase; LPS: lipopolysaccharide; TNF-α: tumor necrosis factor-alpha; BMI: body mass index; TG: triglyceride levels; HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
