For full cohort—Control, N = 299; Diabetes, N = 100 individuals. For renal sub-study—Control, N = 49; Diabetes, N = 89 individuals. DKD risk is defined on a scale of 0–3, where 0 = No diabetes; 1 = type 1 diabetes and lowest uACR tertile; 2 = type 1 diabetes and middle uACR tertile and 3 = type 1 diabetes and highest uACR tertile. SE standard error, sAF skin autofluorescence, BG blood glucose, eGFR estimated glomerular filtration rate. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P ≤ 0.001.
