Results are regression coefficient (95% CI). Nocturnal BP dipping is day-night difference in percentage of day value. M1 indicates unadjusted model; M2, model adjusted for age and sex; M3, the model adjusted for age, sex, eGFR, BMI, tobacco smoking, diabetes, fasting blood glucose, dyslipidemia, CVD, antihypertensive treatment, and albuminuria category; M4, model 3 plus 24h Na, 24h K; M5, model 4 plus glucocorticoids.

95% CI, 95% confidence interval. P values for trend were calculated by treating quartiles as a continuous variable in each model. BP, blood pressure; bpm, beats per minute; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; PR, pulse rate; SBP, systolic blood pressure.

Missing values for the following variables: PR dipping (n = 4).
