The analysis aims to explore sex-specific mechanisms involved in weight loss-induced prediabetes remission.
Participants with prediabetes underwent a 12-month lifestyle intervention.
Linear mixed models compared sex differences in body fat distribution, insulin sensitivity, and incretin responses.
Kaplan-Meier analyses assessed type 2 diabetes survival risk over 9 years.
Among weight loss achievers, 69 females and 59 males achieved prediabetes remission.
Males experienced significant increases in muscle insulin sensitivity (0.067±0.016, p<0.0001) while females enhanced insulin secretion (p=0.014).
Both sexes showed similar diabetes prevention rates after 9 years (p=0.51).
