TABLE 1.

Pearson's correlation coefficients between the skin glycation index and skin elasticity

Skin glycation index	Skin elasticity
Skin glycation index	R2_cheek	R5_cheek	R7_cheek
SGI_cheek	−0.56^**	−0.57 ^**	−0.61 ^**
SGI_forearm	−0.16	−0.24	−0.32
AF_ref	−0.25	−0.29	−0.34^*

SGI_cheek, skin glycation index from the cheek measured using the facial glycation imaging system (FGIS); SGI_forearm, skin glycation index from the volar forearm measured using the FGIS; AF_ref, skin autofluorescence from the volar forearm measured using the AGE Reader mu; R2 _cheek, gross elasticity; R5_cheek, net elasticity; R7_cheek, skin firmness.
