Model 1: Not adjusted; Model 2: Adjusted for demographic parameters (age, sex, educational attainment), anthropometric parameters (BMI, WC, HC, BP) and diabetes duration; Model 3: Adjusted for the variables in Model 2 plus family history, lifestyle factors (smoking, drinking, physical activity level) and food intake (the consumption of bean products, salt, fish and sugary beverages); Model 4: Adjusted for the variables in Model 3 plus biochemical index values (HbA1c, ALT, AST and serum lipid levels). * The difference was significant compared to reference groups (p < 0.05).
