In the analysis adjusted by the Poisson multiple regression model with robust variance, the categories that remained associated with high results of the glycated hemoglobin test were: insulin use, fasting blood glucose ≤70 and ≥100 mg/dL, postprandial blood glucose ≥180 mg/dL, no physical activity, interaction between age ≤59 years and time of disease diagnosis >10 years, origin, arterial hypertension (Table 3). The gene discussed is INS; the disease is Hypertension.
