Relation between ISI 40 , BMI and waist circumference. Relation of insulin sensitivity, expressed as ISI40, to a) body mass index (BMI) and b) waist circumference in Norwegian (black diamonds) and Pakistani (white circles) patients with type 2 diabetes. Solid regression lines represent Norwegian patients and dashed lines represent Pakistani patients. Spearman’s Correlation coefficients (rs) and p-values for each correlation are presented for both ethnicities. In a) the correlations have been performed both including and omitting the outlier (BMI 59). They give approximately the same result, and the outlier is excluded in the rs presented, but shown in the scatterplot.
