Details
This dataset is flawed (compare with the reference) and it is provided here only for backward compatibility. A 5-variable version of the Reaven and Miller data is available in package rrcov. The glucose and sspg columns in this dataset are identical to the fpg and insulin columns, respectively in the rrcov version. The insulin column in this dataset differs from the glucose column in the rrcov version in one entry: observation 104 has the value 45 in the insulin column in this data, and 455 in the corresponding glucose column of the rrcov version.
