  1. Results are unadjusted OR (mean 95% CI) by baseline standard deviation for continuous variables or yes/no for categorical variables. ASVD indicates atherosclerotic vascular disease, eGFR estimated glomerular filtration rate, MDRD Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation and CKD-EPI Chronic Kidney Disease EPIdemiology equation.
