  • Data are presented as the means (SD) or medians (IQR); categorical variables are presented as n (%).

  • eGFR (mL/min per 1.73m2)=175×CRE(mg/dL)-1.234×age (years)-0.179×0.79 (if female).

  • *p<0.05, **p<0.01 and ***p<0.001.

  • †Three male patients were diagnosed with HNF1A-MODY, and therefore, the waist circumference, HDL-c level and uric acid level of all patients with HNF1A-MODY (males and females) were calculated in this analysis.

  • ACR, urinary albumin/creatinine ratio; BMI, body mass index; CRE, serum creatinine; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; DM, diabetes mellitus; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; EOD, early-onset type 2 diabetes; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HbA1c, hemoglobin A1c; HDL-c, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HNF1A, hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 alpha; hs-CRP, high-sensitivity C reactive protein; LDL-c, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; MODY, maturity-onset diabetes of the young; OHA, oral hypoglycemic agent; SBP, systolic blood pressure; TC, total cholesterol; UA, uric acid.
