  1. All HDL-P measurements were loge-transformed before z-scaling. P values for SD change were false discovery rate corrected
  2. CI confidence interval; CVD cardiovascular disease; HDL-P high-density lipoprotein particles; HR hazard ratio; SD standard deviation
  3. Model adjusted for age, sex, smoking, diabetes duration, systolic blood pressure, body mass index, glycated hemoglobin, estimated glomerular filtration rate, ln (urinary albumin-creatinine ratio), ln (triglycerides), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, glycoprotein acetyls, oral antihyperglycemic drugs, insulin use, renin-angiotensin system blockers, antihypertensive drugs, lipid-lowering drugs, and prevalent CVD (for all-cause mortality)
