Areas under the curve of circulating insulin and glucose in response to macronutrient challenges considering all subjects as a whole, and as a function of obesity and group of subjects. Data are means ± SEM. Colors orange, yellow and dark blue correspond to glucose, lipid and protein loads; cyan and purple colors correspond to non-obese and obese individuals; and green, amber and red colors correspond to control women, women with PCOS and men, respectively. *p < 0.05 for the differences among macronutrient loads, considering all individuals as a whole. †p < 0.05 for the differences between non-obese and obese individuals, regardless of the macronutrient ingested and group of subjects. ‡p < 0.05 for the interaction between obesity and macronutrient load, irrespective of group
