AIM: The aim of this study was to determine the differences and changes in total and high-
molecular-weight (HMW) adiponectin levels among metabolically healthy but obese (MHO)
postmenopausal women in response to acute hyperinsulinaemia. METHOD: In this cross-
sectional study, 55 non-diabetic overweight and obese postmenopausal women underwent
a hyperinsulinaemic–euglycaemic clamp test to evaluate insulin sensitivity. Subjects within
the upper tertile of insulin sensitivity were described as 'MHO'(n= 18), whereas those within …
