aData presented as mean (or, median) and standard deviation (or, 25th to 75th percentile range) for continuous variables and percentage for dichotomous variables. MA, microalbuminuria; eGFRcrea, estimated GFR by creatinine-based Modification of Diet in Renal Disease study equation; eGFRcys, estimated GFR by cystatin-C–based equation; UACR, urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio; PWV, pulse wave velocity.
