Anemia, yes
	Men	P	Women	P
Crude	4.13 (1.82–9.1)	0.0005	6.97 (3.22–15.51)	< 0.0001
Model 1	4.32 (1.60–11.62)	0.004	4.30 (1.54–12.62)	0.005
Model 2	4.78 (1.65–13.91)	0.004	4.62 (1.34–16.68)	0.013

Model 1 is adjusted for age, duration of diabetes, systolic blood pressure, hemoglobin, hemoglobin A1c, urinary albumin-creatinine ratio at baseline and the use of rennin-angiotensin system inhibitors. Model 2 includes all variables in Model 1 plus body mass index, total cholesterol, logarithm of triglycerides, uric acid, creatinine, smoking status, and the use of statin. Smoking status was defined as nonsmoker (= 0), previous smoker (= 1), or current smoker (= 2), and the use of rennin-angiotensin system inhibitors or statin was defined as without (= 0) or with (= 1).
