Note: Binary values are given as N (%) within diabetes status and compared by
the Chi-square test. The Pearson Chi-square P value is reported. Continuous
variables are measured by the independent sample group mean test and
reported as means ± standard deviation. P values are considered two-tailed
and calculated at the 95th percentile.
Abbreviations: PP = arterial pulse pressure; GL = glycemic load; Kcal =
kilocalories; Cholesterol Meds= cholesterol-lowing medications; HTN Med=
hypertension medications; HTN = hypertension; BMI=body mass index; WC
=waist circumference; SBP=systolic blood pressure; DBP=diastolic blood
pressure; TC=total cholesterol; TG=blood triglycerides; HDL C= high-density
lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL C =low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. |
