cfPWV, carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity; CI, confidence interval.

^aThe medication classes are specific categories of antihyperglycemic (metformin, sulfonylureas, insulin), antihypertensive (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker, β-blocker, calcium channel antagonist, diuretic, other), and lipid-lowering therapies (statins, other).
