Table 1 Comparison of baseline characteristics between groups on estimated glomerular filtration rate trajectories. The presence of an episode of rapid deterioration is based on more than 80% of curves displaying this characteristic. The number (percentage) or mean (standard deviation) or median (25th, 75th quartiles) are reported for each subgroup. The median (range) is reported for the number of eGFR measurements
