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.
