  6. dThe following variables were entered in the first step of multivariate logistic regression analysis: age group, sex, BMI group, HbA1c group, and creatinine. After excluding the variables with nonsignificant P values (greater than 0.05), age group, sex, and creatinine remained in the final multivariate model
