aCI, confidence intervals; PWV, pulse wave velocity.

bMultivariable models include age, gender, baseline log urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio, body mass index, heart rate, mean arterial pressure (for models other than mean arterial pressure), diabetes, fasting blood glucose, total/HDL-cholesterol, lipid-lowering medication use, triglycerides, hypertension treatment, hormone replacement therapy in women, current smoking status, and prevalent cardiovascular disease.
