Table 5 Comparison of clinical features between subjects without and with subcutaneous fat accumulation (SFA cutoff value 128 cm2; median value) and hyperinsulinemia (IRI cutoff value 5.5 μIU/mL; median value) (Analysis 3) (n = 500)

From: Hyperinsulinemia correlates with low levels of plasma B-type natriuretic peptide in Japanese men irrespective of fat distribution
