    Figure 1:

    Adjusted generalized estimating equations for the achievement of national targets for blood pressure (A), cholesterol (B) and glycated hemoglobin (C) by practice size (quintile) in 1997 and 2005. Models were adjusted for age, sex, duration of diabetes, body mass index, socioeconomic status and number of comorbid conditions. Error bars indicate 95% confidence intervals. HbA1c = glycated hemoglobin, OR = odds ratio. *p < 0.05.
