Table 2 Distibution of patients, event rate (per 100 person years) and hazard ratios (HRs) for outcomes during follow-up, according to the history of microvascular or macrovascular disease at baseline

From: Comparative effects of microvascular and macrovascular disease on the risk of major outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes

  1. Dual absence means absence of both macrovascular and microvascular disease at baseline. HRs estimated using Cox proportional hazards regression models, adjusting for sex, age, region of origin (established market economies, Eastern Europe and Asia), BMI, duration of diabetes, HbA1c, systolic blood pressure, antihypertensive treatment, eGFR and its square, urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (normoalbuminuria, microalbuminuria and macroalbuminuria), LDL- and HDL-cholesterol, history of ever smoking, and randomized study allocations
