Endogenous glucose production, insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion.

<p>Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation or median [inter-quartile range]. <i>p</i>-values from Student’s <i>t</i>-tests or Mann-Whitney U tests as appropriate. NOR: Nordic, SA: South Asians, EGP: endogenous glucose production, FFM: fat free mass, TGD: total glucose disposal, GIR: glucose infusion rate, AIRg: acute insulin response to glucose, AUC: area under the curve (from 0–8 minutes and 0–30 minutes of the intra-venous glucose tolerance test). For LogAIRg _{0–8 min} n = 36 NOR and 16 SA, and for LogAIRg_{0–30 min} n = 40 NOR and 17 SA.
