Abbreviations: SBP: systolic blood pressure; DBP: diastolic blood pressure; TC: total cholesterol; TG: triglyceride; LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HbA1c: hemoglobin A1c; CRP: c-reactive protein; PLT: platelet; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; sALB: serum albumin; UACR: urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio; PT: prothrombin time; APTT: activated partial thromboplastin time; TT: thrombin time; FIB: fibrinogen; D-D: D-dimer; FDP: fibrinogen degradation products. Continuous variables are expressed as median (interquartile range), and categorical variables as count (percent). The between-group comparison was done using the test or Wilcoxon’s rank sum test, where appropriate.
