Figure 1

Box-plot distribution of biomarker values in diabetic (D) and nondiabetic (ND) groups. (a) Thiol levels (μmol/g protein); (b) IMA index (AU/g albumin); (c) Glycated albumin levels (mg/mL); (d) Fructosamine levels (mol/g protein); (e) Fluo-AGE levels (AU/g); (f) AGE levels (μg/mL). The horizontal bars in the box represent the median; the box boundaries represent the 25th and 75th percentile values. and indicate a significant difference versus ND group.
