Scatter plots in men (black spots) and women (red spots) representing bivariate (Spearman) correlations between HIRI, M3, basal glucose, TG, AC and liver enzymes (ALT, AST, GGT). Correlation coefficients are indicated in black (men), and in red (women). Correction done for BMI, age, HBA1c, genetic disposition and alcohol consumption. Significance level of each correlation is further indicated *: p < 0.05, **: p < 0.01, ***: p < 0.001, ****: p < 0.0001
