Adjusted hazard ratios for incidence of a cardiovasular diseases, b all-cause mortality and c a composite of cardiovasular diseases and all-cause mortality by updated estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urine albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) compared to the reference group with eGFR 90–104 ml/min/1.73 m2 and UACR 0–0.9 mg/mmol. Hazard ratios were adjusted for age, gender, smoking status, drinking habit, body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio, glycated hemoglobin A1c, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, total cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio, triglyceride, self-reported duration of diabetes mellitus, family history of diabetes mellitus, diagnosed hypertension, the usage of anti-hypertensive drugs, oral anti-diabetic drugs, insulin and lipid-lowering agents at baseline
