Hemoglobin (g/dl) 0.89 (0.75–1.05) 0.17 1.02 (0.82–1.28) 0.84
Serum creatinine (mg/dl) 2.39 (0.98–5.82) 0.05 2.10 (0.49–8.97) 0.31

HbA1c (%) 1.39 (1.03–1.88) 0.03 1.18 (0.81–1.72) 0.39
eGFR (ml/min/1.73 m2) 0.98 (0.97–1.00) 0.03
ECG voltage (mV) 1.54 (1.19–1.98) <0.01    
BNP (ng/l) 1.77 (1.20–2.59) <0.01 1.10 (1.01–1.20) 0.03
CRP (mg/dl) 3.64 (1.15–11.5) 0.03 4.31 (1.10–16.8) 0.03

Variables showing a tendency of association with abnormal albuminuria (P < 0.25) in the univariate analysis were included in the multivariate model (eGFR and ECG voltage were excluded from the model due to possible multicollinearity).

Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; BNP, B-type natriuretic peptide; CRP, C-reactive protein; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; ECG, electrocardiogram; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; SBP, systolic blood pressure.
