Table 4 ANKRD26 gene expression in relation to metabolic and inflammatory parameters. Relationship between metabolic or inflammatory parameters and ANKRD26 gene expression was assessed in lean and obese individuals by covariate-adjusted Spearman’s rank-order correlation adjusted for age. Number of individuals (n), correlation coefficient r, and age-adjusted p value are shown in the table. TG, triglyceride; TC, total cholesterol; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; CRP, C-reactive protein; IL, interleukin; IFNγ, interferon γ; TNFα, tumor necrosis factor α; IP-10, interferon gamma-induced protein 10; MCP1, monocyte chemotactic protein 1; MIP1, macrophage inflammatory protein 1; RANTES, regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed, and secreted
