In the group without T2D, 12 proteins (CD163, epithelial cell adhesion molecule [Ep-CAM], osteopontin [OPN], TNF-R1, kidney injury molecule 1 [KIM1], proheparin-binding EGF-like growth factor [HB-EGF], MMP-12, protein-glutamine gamma-glutamyltransferase 2 [TGM2], vascular endothelial growth factor A [VEGF-A], interleukin-6 [IL-6], IL-10, and protein S100-A12 [EN-RAGE]) were selected alongside the basic FRS variables in the priority-Lasso analysis. Here, S100A12 is linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
