Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that Beclin1 (β = −0.601; 95% CI, −0.018 to −0.011; P < .001), total cholesterol (β = 0.221; 95% CI, 0.000 to 0.000; P = .009), hypertension (β = 0.174; 95% CI, 0.001 to 0.008; P = .01), and male sex (β = 0.171; 95% CI, 0.001 to 0.008; P = .02) were significant predictors of CIMT in patients with diabetes. Here, BECN1 is linked to hypertensive disorder.
