Table 2.
Groups | Presence of plaques (cases) | Plaques' types (number and rate) | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Cases | + | − | Soft plaques | Calcified plaques | Dense plaques | |
Normoalbuminuria group | 130 | 69 | 61 | 72 (66.67) | 9 (8.33) | 27 (25) |
Microalbuminuria group | 120 | 62 | 58 | 65 (68.42) | 7 (7.37) | 23 (24.21) |
Comparison of plaques' rates between two groups: χ 2 = 0.209, P > 0.05; comparison of plaques' types and numbers between two groups: χ 2 = 0.210, P > 0.05.
