Multiple logistic regression (dependent variable Friesinger index).

VariablesBOR (95% CI) value

Glucose (mmol/L)0.0051.0 (1.0–1.02)0.347
Age (years)0.1121.1 (1.0–1.21)0.008
Alpha-tocopherol (μmol/L)2.44311.5 (1.2–112.1)0.035

Dependent variable: Friesinger index (0: FI 0–4; 1: FI 10–15). Independent variables: age and glucose (continuous variables) and serum alpha-tocopherol levels (categorical variable) (0: <12 μmol/L; 1:>12 μmol/L). OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
