Logistic regression analysis with vascular structure as dependent variable and markers of dysglycemia as independent variable

Dependent variable:	OR	CI 95 %	p value
With and without TOD of cartic Modelo 1
FPG (mg/dL)	1.012	1.005 to 1.020	0.001
Average PG (mg/dL)	1.012	1.005 to 1.020	0.001
HbA1c (%)	1.492	1.189 to 1.872	0.001
Altered glucose metabolism	2.153	1.217 to 3.629	0.004
With and without TOD of carotic Modelo 2
FPG (mg/dL)	1.013	1.001 to 1.025	0.039
Average PG (mg/dL)	1.010	1.001 to 1.019	0.010
HbA1c (%)	1.425	1.026 to 1.980	0.034
Altered glucose metabolism*	1.920	1.079 to 3.415	0.026

Dependent variable: target organ damage of carotid

Indepedent variable: fasting glucose (mg/dL), average postprandial glycemia (mg/dL) and HbA1c (%)

Adjusted by: Model 1: age and gender

Modelo 2: age, gender, heart rate, smoker, body mass index, no HDL-Cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, antihypertensive drugs, lipid lowering drugs, antidiabetic drugs alcohol drinking (gr/week), METs/hour/week

OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval, TOD target organ damage, FPG fasting plasma glucose, PG postprandial glucose, HbA1c glycosylated hemoglobin

TOD = Plaque or carotid IMT >0.90 mm (n = 77)

*Altered glucose metabolism including diabetes and prediabetes subjects (n = 196)
