All values are mean ± SD; adjusted -value was calculated by using the stepwise logistic regression model for the potential variables. Abbreviations. HbA1c: glycated hemoglobin; Hs-CRP= high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; LDL: low density lipoprotein; SD: standard deviation; LF: low frequency; HF: high frequency; HR_DB: heart rate response to deep breathing; BRS: baroreflex sensitivity; n.u.: normalized unit.
