Multiple logistic regression analysis of the association between serum levels of meteorin-like (Metrnl) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Model	Independent variable	beta coefficient	Standard error of beta coefficient	Wald statistic	Odds ratio (95% CI)	P-value
Model 1	Metrnl, per 100 pg/mL	0.638	0.161	15.757	1.892 (1.381–2.593)	<0.001
Model 2	Metrnl, per 100 pg/mL	0.577	0.171	11.345	1.780 (1.273–2.491)	0.001
Model 3	Metrnl, per 100 pg/mL	0.546	0.207	6.931	1.727 (1.150–2.593)	0.008
Model 4	Metrnl, per 100 pg/mL	0.399	0.217	3.387	1.491 (0.974–2.281)	0.066
	HOMA-IR, per 1 unit	0.660	0.248	7.080	1.935 (1.190–3.146)	0.008

Model 1: not adjusted; Model 2: adjusted for age, gender, and body mass index (BMI); Model 3: Model 2 plus systolic blood pressure (BP), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and uric acid (UA); Model 4: Model 3 plus the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR).
