OPG, osteoprotegerin; PWV, pulse wave velocity; CI, confidence interval.

^aNatural log-transformed.

^bModel 1: Adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, history of smoking, fasting plasma glucose, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, natural log-transformed triglycerides and estimated glomerular filtration rate.

^cModel 2: Model 1 + medications for diabetes, medications for hyperlipidemia and renin-angiotensin system antagonist.
