Thigh circumference was inversely associated with IMT in men and women and calf circumference was negatively correlated with IMT in women. Multiple stepwise regression analysis revealed that thigh circumference was independently correlated with insulin sensitivity index (Kitt) and IMT. Furthermore, in multivariate logistic regression analysis, thigh circumference was an independent determinant factor for carotid atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes even after adjusting for other cardiovascular risk factors.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Thigh and calf circumference were correlated with insulin resistance and carotid atherosclerosis, and thigh circumference was independently associated with insulin resistance and carotid atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/1475-2840-11-62","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,13]],"date-time":"2012-06-13T10:51:33Z","timestamp":1339584693000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":41,"title":["The association of insulin resistance and carotid atherosclerosis with thigh and calf circumference in patients with type 2 diabetes"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Jong Suk","family":"Park","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Min Ho","family":"Cho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chul Woo","family":"Ahn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kyung Rae","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kap Bum","family":"Huh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"503_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1595","DOI":"10.2337\/diab.37.12.1595","volume":"37","author":"GM Reaven","year":"1988","unstructured":"Reaven GM: Role of insulin resistance in human disease.
