Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load and Their Association with C-Reactive Protein and Incident Type 2 Diabetes

Table 2

Beta coefficients (SEE) for the association of energy-adjusted glycemic index (GI) or glycemic load (GL) with ln-C-reactive protein (CRP) in Dutch adults aged ≥55 years.

	Ln-CRP at baseline
	𝑛=4,366
	GI per 10 units	GL per 50 units
Crude model	0.11 (0.04), 𝑃<.01	−0.04 (0.03), 𝑃=.25
Model 1	0.04 (0.04), 𝑃=.31	−0.03 (0.03), 𝑃=.41
Model 2	0.05 (0.04), 𝑃=.29	0.09 (0.05), 𝑃=.05
Model 3	0.005 (0.04), 𝑃=.90	0.11 (0.04), 𝑃=.01

Values are beta-coefficients with SEE.
Model 1: adjusted for age, sex, smoking, and family history of diabetes.
Model 2: as model 1 with additional adjustments for intake of energy, protein, saturated fat, alcohol, and fiber.
Model 3: as model 2 with additional adjustment for BMI.
