Table 1.
Clinical characteristics of the patients at the time of diagnosis; age, body mass index (BMI), glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), systolic and diastolic blood pressure, low‐density lipoprotein (LDL cholesterol), proinsulin c‐peptide (C‐peptide) and urine albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio
| Characteristics | N | Mean (SD) |
|---|---|---|
| Age at onset (y) | 280 | 36.9 (12.4) |
| Body mass index (kg/m2) | 194 | 23.0 (3.3) |
| HbA1c (mmol/mol (%)) | 280 | 106 (25) (11.8 (2.29)) |
| Blood pressure (Systolic, mm Hg) | 242 | 123 (15) |
| Blood pressure (Diastolic, mm Hg) | 242 | 76 (9) |
| LDL cholesterol (mmol/L) | 258 | 2.9 (0.9) |
| C‐peptide (pmol/L) | 265 | 365 (241) |
| Albumin‐to‐creatinine ratioa | 270 | 8.9 (2.5) |

To account for the naturally skewed distribution of albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio (ACR), the data were log10 transformed before determining the mean.
