Popis: ObjectiveBilirubin and triglycerides can regulate insulin secretion and glucose uptake. The aim of our study is to analyze associations between total bilirubin (TB) and the bilirubin-to-triglycerides ratio (BTR) with metabolic markers in healthy prepubertal children.MethodsSubjects were 246 healthy children (mean age 8), of whom 142 (58%) were reevaluated 4 years later (mean age 12). The subjects were stratified according to age into three groups (9.6 years; n=82 each) at baseline and into two groups (
