D-IMT: intima media thickness of the dorsalis pedis artery; : unstandardized coefficients; SE: standard error. Model 1 included traditional macrovascular risk factors such as age, sex, cigarette smoking, body mass index (BMI), HbA₁C, systolic blood pressure (SBP), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (,). Model 2 included only adiponectin (, ). Model 3 incorporated Model 1 plus Model 2 (, ).
