Table 4 Multivariate adjusted hazard ratios (HR) for mortality, from a Cox proportional hazard model, associated with CKD groups, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), albuminuria categories and non-controlled HbA1c, in the KIDNEES cohort free of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease, adjusted for covariables resulting in the variable selection process (n = 398,477)

  1. HR: Pooled Hazard Ratios. CI: Confidence Interval. CKD: Chronic kidney disease. HTN: Hypertension. T2D: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
  2. Model adjusted by: age, sex, socioeconomic deprivation index, other primary renal disease, autoimmune disease with CKD risk, Smoking status, Obesity, Heart failure, anemia, hypercholesterolemia, statins, platelet and anticoagulants, aldosterone antagonists, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, Charlson comorbidity. Estimation of covariable effects presented in Supplementary table 6. Model resulting from stepwise backwards selection process based on Akaike Information Criteria starting from model presented in supplementary table 7.
