Risk of Microvascular Complications and Macrovascular Risk Factors in Early-Onset Type 1 Diabetes after at Least 10 Years Duration: An Analysis of Three Population-Based Cross-Sectional Surveys in Germany between 2009 and 2016

Figure 1

Risk of diabetes-related complications in relation to diabetes duration. Risk of retinopathy ((a) ), hypertension ((b) ), nephropathy ((c) ), and dyslipidemia ((d) ) with 95% confidence bands (shaded areas). The estimated risk was derived from log-binomial regression analyses with the respective outcome as the dependent variable and diabetes duration and sex as independent variables. Diabetes duration was modelled as a natural cubic spline with three equally spaced knots. Different N are due to missing values in the outcome variables.
