Table 2.

Adjusted HRs and 95% CIs for traditional risk factors for severe hypoglycemia (n = 1,206; 185 people with hypoglycemia)

Model 1 Model 2
Age, per 5 years 1.42 (1.25–1.62) 1.24 (1.07–1.43)

Black race 1.92 (1.42–2.60) 1.39 (1.02–1.88)
Obese* 1.46 (1.07–1.97) 1.31 (0.96–1.78)
Fructosamine (vs. lowest tertile)
 Middle tertile (296–350 μmol/L) 2.30 (1.46–3.62) 1.78 (1.11–2.83)
 Highest tertile (>350 μmol/L) 4.04 (2.62–6.21) 2.62 (1.67–4.10)

 Any insulin use 5.51 (3.25–9.34) 3.00 (1.71–5.28)
eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (creatinine) 2.00 (1.35–2.97) 1.40 (0.92–2.13)
ACR
 30 to <300 mg/g 1.51 (1.02–2.24) 1.16 (0.78–1.74)
 ≥300 mg/g 3.07 (2.00–4.72) 1.95 (1.23–3.07)
DSST, per 1 lower race-specific SD 1.67 (1.42–1.96) 1.57 (1.33–1.84)

Values are reported as HR (95% CI). Model 1 included age, sex, and race. Model 2 included all variables in model 1 plus all covariates listed in the table.

*Overweight and normal weight were collapsed into one reference group because of the small numbers of normal weight participants.
