Predictors of Weight Change in Adults with Type 1 Diabetes: Multivariable Adjusted Linear Regression Model.
| Standardized regression coefficient (SE) | P-value | |
|---|---|---|
| Baseline HbA1c, % | 0.43 (0.18) | 0.02 |
| Initiating intensive insulin therapy after baseline | 0.77 (0.42) | 0.07 |
| Baseline symptomatic autonomic neuropathy | −1.49 (0.67) | 0.03 |
| Baseline BMI | 1.01 (0.06) | <0.0001 |
| Follow-up time | 0.16 (0.04) | 0.0006 |
Weight change was represented as the residuals of baseline BMI regressed on BMI at last follow-up.
Stepwise selection also allowed for age, insulin dose/kg of body weight, and overt nephropathy.
