Background and Objectives : Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), visceral adiposity, and hypertension frequently coexist, but their independent associations with carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) remain uncertain. We compared cardiometabolic profiles by diabetes status and evaluated adjusted associations with cIMT.
