Note. Univariable models are unadjusted. Multivariable models are adjusted for age at transition, sex, average A1C, and clinic site. Avg A1C, average A1C; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; Adj R2, adjusted R2. Italicized values indicate . Underlined values indicate (Bonferroni-corrected p-value in light of multiple comparisons).
