Ethnic differences in plasma fetuin-A levels and adipose tissue insulin resistance. A Insulin-induced suppression of lipolysis during the 2-step euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp, and B plasma fetuin-A concentrations in Norwegian (NOR) and South-Asian (SA) persons. C Correlations between plasma fetuin-A concentration and insulin-induced suppression of lipolysis during the 2-step euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp. The thick lines represents the correlation across all persons, and the stapled lines represent within-group correlations. D Mediation analyses on effects of plasma fetuin-A concentration on adipose tissue insulin resistance. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01. AT-IR; Adipose tissue insulin resistance. NEFA; non-esterified fatty
