  1. The table gives beta coefficients between eGFR and CRP and between eGFR and TRX, and coefficients of determination (R2) for whole models. CRP and TRX were log-transformed to fit the linear models. Dummy variables were used for sex (1 for male, 0 for female) and smoking (1 for smokers, 0 for non-smokers). See the footnote of Table 1 for abbreviations.
  2. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001.
