The Association of Postprandial Triglyceride Variability with Renal Dysfunction and Microalbuminuria in Patients with Type 2 Diabetic Mellitus: A Retrospective and Observational Study

Table 4

Multivariate Cox’s proportional hazard regression model for the association between postprandial TG variability and the incidence of microalbuminuria.

HR [95% CI] value
Model 1	1.60 [1.09-2.36] 0.0170	1.56 [1.06-2.23] 0.0232	1.49 [1.02-2.20] 0.0399
Model 2	1.79 [1.09-2.91] 0.0205	1.73 [1.06-2.83] 0.0295	1.60 [0.98-2.58] 0.0591
Model 3	1.77 [1.08-2.88] 0.0228	1.72 [1.05-2.81] 0.0319	1.58 [0.97-2.56] 0.0657

Model 1: adjusted for age, sex, and BMI. Model 2: adjusted for age, sex, BMI, and mean TG. Model 3: adjusted for age, sex, BMI, mean TG, and baseline eGFR. TG: triglyceride; SD: standard deviation; Adj-SD: adjusted SD; MMD: maximum minus minimum difference; HR: hazard ratio; 95% CI: 95% confidence intervals; BMI: body mass index; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate.
