Regression analysis included age, BMI, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, TG, fasting glucose, AUC_INS, HR_REST, HRR, and VO_2max as covariates. Abbreviations: AUC_INS, area under the curve for insulin; BMI, body mass index; HDL-C, high density lipoprotein cholesterol; HR_REST, resting heart rate; HRR, heart rate recovery; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglycerides; VO_2max, maximal oxygen consumption. *Each 1 beat/min.
