Hazard ratios for overall cancer risk for groups of population based on tertiles of overall mean glucose and fructosamine.

<p>All models were adjusted for age, sex, SES, fasting status, history of diabetes, lung and cardiovascular disease, serum albumin, total cholesterol and triglycerides. P-value for interaction was 0.77.</p

Comparison between population with repeated measurements and single measurement of glucose and fructosamine in the AMORIS Study.

*<p>Standardized log glucose and fructosamine were each analyzed in the same models; adjusted for age, sex, SES, fasting status, history of diabetes, lung and cardiovascular disease, serum albumin, total cholesterol and triglycerides.</p

Characteristics of study participants based on cancer status.

Hazard ratios for the risk of different types of cancer for groups of population based on tertiles of overall mean glucose and fructosamine.

<p>All models were adjusted for age, SES, fasting status, history of diabetes, lung and cardiovascular disease, serum albumin, total cholesterol and triglycerides. Additional adjustment for sex was performed for colorectal and lung cancer, as well as for parity and age at first childbirth for breast cancer. P-values for interaction were 0.29, 0.93, 0.01, and 0.08 for prostate, breast, colorectal and lung cancer, respectively.</p
