Insulin resistance, waist circumference, sex, age, total body fat and visceral adipose tissue of 650 individuals from the Netherlands Epidemiology of Obesity (NEO) study. Visceral adipose tissue measurements were taken of approximately 40% of the individuals, at random.
vatA data frame with 650 rows and 6 variables:
Natural logarithm of insulin resistance (fasting glucose (mmol/L) x fasting insulin (mU/L) / 22.5)
Waist circumference (standardised, cm)
Sex (0 = male, 1 = female)
Age (years)
Total body fat (standardised, %)
Visceral adipose tissue (standardised, cm^2)
This is a simulated data set inspired by the NEO data <doi:10.1007/s10654-013-9801-3>. A motivating example using the example data can be found here: <doi:10.1093/aje/kwab114>
