Model 1 (adjusted for age, gender, T2DM duration, BMI, SBP, DBP, smoking history, TSH, and FT4), model 2 (adding FCP, 2h-CP, AbG, FbG, 2hbG, HOMA-IR, and HbA1c on the basis of model 1), model 3 (adding urea, CR, UA, and GFR to model 2), and model 4 (adding ALT, AST, GGT, TC, TG, HDL-C, and LDL-C to model 3). was considered statistically significant.
