Comparison of insulin resistance index (IRI) biochemical indicators in different groups after 12 weeks of treatment with PPM. At the end of the study, significant differences were compared between groups. ^*P < 0.05, ^**P < 0.01, and ^***P < 0.001 compared to the normal control group, ^#P < 0.05, ^##P < 0.01, and ^###P < 0.001 compared to the model control group. FBG: fasting blood glucose, FINS: fasting insulin, FGC: fasting glucagon, TC: total cholesterol, TG: triglyceride, HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, LDL-C: low density lipoprotein cholesterol
