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)
