Insulin resistance, expressed by the Q 1 -MCAi significantly associated with all-cause mortality (adjusted HR = 1.2, 95% CI 1.1- 1.4) and with a borderline significance for cardiovascular mortality (adjusted HR = 1.3, 95% CI 0.99–1.7) in the non-diabetic cohort members (Additional file 1 : Table S4c) whereas Q 4 -fasting glucose did not show a significant association with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality after the exclusion of diabetic individuals from the cohort (adjusted HR = 1.1, 95% CI 0.96–1.2) and (adjusted HR = 1.04, 95% CI 0.8–1.3) respectively.
