The multivariable model was adjusted for sex, age, body mass index, waist circumference, income levels, smoking, alcohol consumption, regular physical activity, proteinuria, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, heart failure, myocardial infarction, valvular heart disease, cardiomyopathy, congenital heart disease, hyperthyroidism, and Charlson comorbidity index. CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate.
