Adjusted hazard ratios for incidence of cardiovascular diseases among (A) all participants, (B) female, (C) male (D), age <65 years old, (E) age ≥65 years old, (F) duration of diabetes mellitus (DM) <1 year, (G) duration of DM ≥1 year, (H) smoker, (I) nonsmoker, (J) body mass index (BMI) <23 kg/m², (K) BMI 23 to 25 kg/m², and (L) BMI ≥25 kg/m² by multivariable Cox proportional hazards regressions. Hazard ratios were adjusted by age, sex, smoking status, total cholesterol to high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio, triglyceride, BMI, urine albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio, self‐reported duration of DM, diagnosed hypertension, family history of DM, estimated glomerular filtration rate, Charlson Index and the use of insulin, metformin, sulfonylurea, other oral diabetic drugs, angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker, β‐blocker, calcium channel blocker, diuretic, other antihypertensive drugs, and statin at baseline. Group 1 (no target achieved) was used as reference group; Group 2: only HbA1c (hemoglobin A1c) target achieved; Group 3: only blood pressure (BP) target achieved; Group 4: only low‐density lipoprotein‐cholesterol (LDL‐C) target achieved; Group 5: only HbA1c and BP targets achieved; Group 6: only HbA1c and LDL‐C targets achieved; Group 7: only BP and LDL‐C targets achieved; Group 8: all targets achieved.
