Only variables which were significantly associated with baPWV in lasso regression were included in mixed models
aIn all participants, interaction terms of diabetes (DM) and platelet counts (PLT) were added in mixed models, adjusting for age, Postprandial 2 h-glucose, Systolic blood pressure
*P value is significant after Bofferoni correction
