Kaplan-Meier survival curves of renal endpoint in low albuminuria patients (<ā€‰330.9Ā mg/gCr of median UACR) with a) UMCP-1 (ng/mgCr), b) UEGF (ng/mgCr), and c) UEGF/MCP-1 (ng/ng) above and below the optimal receiver operating characteristics cutoff level of each tubular biomarkers. Only UEGF ā‰¤30Ā ng/mgCr, and UEGF/MCP-1ā€‰ā‰¤ā€‰9.2Ā ng/ng showed a significantly faster progression to endpoint (pā€‰<ā€‰0.001, log-rank test)
