Comparison of the vascular densities of the superficial and deep plexus in patients with type 1 diabetes and healthy controls. Values are means and 95% confidence intervals estimated from a fractional generalized linear model (see Statistical Analysis for details).LCI = lower confidence interval; UCI = upper confidence interval; S- = superficial plexus; D- = deep plexus.
