  1. Data expressed as mean ± SEM. No significant correlation was observed between age and HbA1c between the healthy and diabetic samples (Pearson-test)
  2. Medications were recorded in conjugation with biomedical parameters, with the most prevalent amongst diabetes patients including Metformin® (n = 40) oral hypoglycaemic, simvastatin (n = 21) for cholesterol regulation, and Coversyl® (n = 13) for blood pressure regulation
