  1. Multiple linear regression analyses of IMT measured 2010 as dependent variable adjusted for age, sex, treatment with statins, HbA1c measured at baseline and PWV. The increase of one-unit for each of the variables confers a change in IMT mm, expressed as the regression coefficient (Beta) with 95 percent CI.
