Note. Data presented are means (std) or percentages (n); for non-normally distributed variables, median (interquartile range) is presented. Sample size was reduced for the following variables: Body mass index (men: 211 non-cases and 88 cases; women: 221 non-cases and 76 cases); waist to hip ratio (men: 210 non-cases and 89 cases; women: 219 non-cases and 75 cases); HbA1c (men: 211 non-cases and 89 cases; women: 222 non-cases and 75 cases); insulin dose/weight (men: 197 non-cases and 87 cases; women: 215 non-cases and 75 cases); blood pressure medication (men: 197 non-cases and 87 cases; women: 215 non-cases and 75 cases); pulse (men: 210 non-cases and 89 cases); HDL2 (men: 205 non-cases and 86 cases; women: 216 non-cases and 75 cases); Apolipoprotein A-I and Apolipoprotein B (men: 207 non-cases and 89 cases; women: 220 non-cases and 76 cases); Apolipoprotein A-II (men: 207 non-cases and 89 cases; women: 118 non-cases and 76 cases); ACE/ARB use (men: 200 non-cases and 88 cases; women: 217 non-cases and 75 cases); albumin excretion rate (men: 210 non-cases and 89 cases; women: 221 non-cases and 75 cases); and white blood cell count (men: 210 non-cases and 88 cases; women: 220 non-cases and 76 cases).
