  1. Categorical variables are shown as number and percentage and continuous variables are shown as mean ± standard deviation
  2. a Defined as time since diagnosis; b P value by χ2 test for categorical variables or by Student’s t-test for continuous variables; c Standard deviation could not be converted to mmol/mol because NGSP HbA1c is below 3%
