Kaplan–Meier curve and restricted cubic spline for the association between fasting C-peptide and cardiovascular events in the participants without previous T2DM. HRs and 95% CIs were derived from a Cox proportional hazard model adjusting for sex, age, smoking status, use of antihypertensive medication, use of lipid-lowering medication, use of antidiabetic medication, BMI, SBP, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, and the interaction between fasting C-peptide and HOMA-IR. BMI body mass index, CI confidence interval, FPG fasting plasma glucose, HbA1c hemoglobin A1c, HOMA-IR homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, HR hazard ratio, LDL cholesterol low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, T2DM type 2 diabetes mellitus, 2hPG 2 h plasma glucose
