Comparison among four or three groups; #Compared with the SPK group. SPK: simultaneous pancreas–kidney transplantation; CRF: diabetic patients with uremia (chronic renal failure); RT: diabetic patients with uremia who underwent renal transplantation; CON: normal individuals; T1DM: type 1 diabetic mellitus; T2DM: type 2 diabetic mellitus; BMI: body mass index; DM: diabetes mellitus.
