Multinomial logistic regression model adjusted for all predictors listed in Table 2. The lower eGFRcys category comprised individuals with eGFRdiff < −15, the concordant category served as the reference and comprised individuals with eGFRdiff between −15 and 15, and the lower eGFRcr category comprised individuals with eGFRdiff ≥ 15.
