Using one-way analysis of variance and post-hoc multiple comparisons with Bonferroni’s correction to investigate the differences of skin AF levels, and FMD values between the non-CKD, uremia with DM, and uremia without DM groups.

<p>(a) The skin AF level was significantly lower in the non-CKD group than in the uremia group (P<0.01). However, the skin AF level was similar between the uremia with or without DM groups. (b) The FMD value was significantly higher in the non-CKD group than in the uremia group (P<0.01). However, the FMD value was similar between the uremia with or without DM groups.</p

Receiver operating curves (ROC) of AGE for predicting abnormal FMD in the (a) hemodialysis group, and (b) the non-CKD group.
