Association between abdominal obesity indices and cardiovascular events among people with type 2 diabetes in different subgroups. Each subgroup was adjusted for gender, age, ethnicity, education, smoking status, drinking status, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, total cholesterol, fasting blood glucose, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, physical activity, antidiabetic agents, and diabetes duration, except for stratification variables. Hazard ratios are presented as per 1 SD increase in the abdominal obesity indices for cardiovascular events. BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; WC, waist circumference; VAI, visceral adiposity index; LAP, lipid accumulation product; CVAI, Chinese visceral adiposity index
