Table 2.

* SPPB: Short Physical Performance Battery; ** regression coefficients expressed per standard deviation (SD) reported for ease of comparison across variables; † significant (p < 0.05) values denoted in bold. Covariates: age, ethnicity, sex, SES, time since diagnosis of diabetes, and number of additional comorbidities. Analyses with physical function and heart rate variables were further adjusted for BMI.
