Data are prevalence ratio (95% CI) based in Poisson regression

Italic values show the presence of statistic significance

Model 1: crude

Model 2: adjusted by sex and age

Model 3: adjusted by model 2, use of hypoglycemic, antihypertensive, anticoagulant, lipid-lowing agents, carbohydrate and lipids intake, stroke, peripheral artery disease, and the presence of any other stage of the disease
