Parameter Estimates of GEE Model in PCOS Compared with Non-PCOS Women.

GEE, generalized estimating equationPCOS, polycystic ovary syndrome, based on NIH criteriaBMI, body mass indexHOMA-IR, insulin resistance calculated by homeostasis model assessment from this formula: (fasting insulin level (mIU/l) × FPG (mmol/l)/ 22.5.IR, insulin resistance; cut-off point for IR = 2.6 (from above formula)HOMA-%β, homeostasis model assessment value for percent β-cell function: [fasting insulin level (mIU/l) × 20 / (FPG (mmol/l) − 3.5)].a Odds ratios for insulin resistance are shown in parameter column.* Indicates interaction.Parameter Estimates of GEE Model in PCOS Compared with Non-PCOS Women.
