Hazard Ratios for the Composite Outcome (a) and Mortality (b) for BMI Categories. A U-shaped association is evident between BMI categories and hazard ratios for both the composite outcome and mortality, in stage 3–4 CKD patients. Hazard ratios with 95 % CIs shown for Cox regression models: crude, model 1 (age-adjusted), model 2 (model 1 plus gender and race-adjusted), model 3 (model 2 plus estimated glomerular filtration rate, proteinuria, cause of chronic kidney disease, diabetes status)
