UEGL urinary excretion rate of glucose, Q1 quartile 1 (P0, P25), Q2 quartile 2 (P25, P50), Q3 quartile 3 (P50, P75), Q4 quartile 4 (P75, P100)
aObtained by using logistic regression analysis. Test for trend based on variable including the median value for each quartile
bAdjusted for sex, age, body mass index, diabetes mellitus duration, smoking, hypertension, haemoglobin A1c, total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and estimated glomerular filtration rate
cData are presented as odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval)
dSignificantly different from UEGL of Q1, P = 0.03 (Bonferroni-corrected)
eSignificantly different from UEGL of Q1, P = 0.04 (Bonferroni-corrected)
fSignificantly different from UEGL of Q1, P = 0.003 (Bonferroni-corrected)
