Scatter plots showing the correlation between sclerostin (pmol/L) and: (A) age (years), (B) diabetes duration (years), (C) eGFR (mL/min/1.73m2), (D) diastolic blood pressure (mmHg), (E) LDL-c (mg/dL), (F) calcium (mg/dL), and (G) periostin (pmol/L), in T2D patients (n = 139). The p-values between the different associations were performed by Spearman’s correlation coefficients (showing p < 0.05 in each scatter plot). eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; LDL-c, low density lipoprotein cholesterol; T2D, type 2 diabetes.
