Table 3.
Model A shows the most parsimonious Cox model, with age as the timeline, for all incident stroke events. Model B shows the addition of moderate non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) or worse to Model A
| Baseline variable | Model A | Model B | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cox model, HR (95% CI) | p-value | Cox model, HR (95% CI) | p-value | |
| HbA1c (per 1% increase) | 1.24 (1.03, 1.51) | 0.027 | 1.21 (0.99, 1.47) | 0.062 |
| Atrial fibrillation | 3.20 (1.50, 6.84) | 0.003 | 3.50 (1.62, 7.56) | 0.001 |
| Ln (urinary albumin:creatinine)a | 1.34 (1.12, 1.61) | 0.002 | 1.30 (1.08, 1.56) | 0.006 |
| Moderate NPDR or worse | 2.55 (1.19, 5.47) | 0.016 | ||
aA 2.72-fold increase in urinary albumin:creatinine corresponds to an increase of 1 in ln(urinary albumin:creatinine)
