  1. 1 Chart review for controls includes abstraction of data from electronic transfer from the Rochester Epidemiology Project (REP) database, Mayo clinic paper records, Olmstead Medical Center electronic and paper record, Olmstead Community Hospital electronic and paper records, Epic, and the REP browser (electronic record system) from date of first REP encounter to date of last follow-up
  2. 2Permissible substance abuse at donation/donation is defined as a remote history of marijuana use with no active use around the time of the donation date or current marijuana use as long as it does not interfere with lifestyle. Remote other substance use is not a contraindication to donation as long as its truly remote
  3. 3Permissible depression/anxiety at donation/donation is defined as well controlled, in the distant past prior to the donation date, or involving few episodes of care
  4. 4Permissable hypertension at donation/donation includes that which is well controlled (< 140/90), treated with a diuretic antihypetensive agent, a non-diuretic antihypertensive agent, or both (1 diuretic and 1 non-diuretic hypertensive agent), age needs to be > 50 years. Exclude if age < 50 years or not well controlled or using 2 or more non-diuretic agents or using 2 or more diuretic agents
  5. 5Urine Dipstick, 24 H Urine Protein, Urinalysis Predicted 24-Hour Protein, Protein-Osmolality Ratio, Urine Protein to Creatinine Ratio, Urine Albumin to Creatine Ratio, 24 H Urine Albumin
  6. 6Congestive heart disease, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attack, angioplasty, stents
  7. 7Number and year of pregnancies, pregnancy outcome (singleton, twins, triplets, ≥ 4, abortion, miscarriage, fetal death), gestational length (full term, pre-term), and pregnancy complications (gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes, proteinuria, eclampsia, preeclampsia)
