Kaplan-Meier curves for the event “ESRD development” based on the M-score (a), E-score (b), S-Sscore (c), T-score (d) and C-score (e). Univariate Cox regression yielded the following p-values: M-score: p = 0.32; E-score: p = 0.96; S-score: p = 0.90; T-score: p = 0.02. Multivariate Cox regression adjusting for GFR and proteinuria at baseline and the treatment arm yielded the following p-values (also given in the figure): M-score: p = 0.15; E-score: p = 0.27; S-score: p = 0.49; T-score: p = 0.01). For the C-score, the proportional hazard assumption was not met
