Cardio-Ankle Vascular Index and Indices of Diabetic Polyneuropathy in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

Table 3

Simple and multiple linear regression analyses of indices of diabetic neuropathy with the CAVI.

	CAVI
	r	β	β’
Sural SCV	−0.41	−026	−0.36
Peroneal MCV	−0.16	−0.08	−0.10
Tibial MCV	−0.13	−0.13	−0.14
Median FWCV	−0.28	−0.25	−0.28
CVRR resting	−0.15	−0.00	−0.00
CVRR deep breathing	−0.07	0.05	0.07

Coefficients (standardized) of simple regression (r) and those of multiple regression (β) for the CAVI and (β’) for neuropathy indices are shown. Please see the main text for details of the other explanatory variables. ; SCV: sensory nerve conduction velocity; MCV: motor nerve conduction velocity; FWCV: F-wave conduction velocity; CV_R-R: coefficient of variation of the R-R interval.
