Data presented as mean +/− SD for normally distributed continuous variables or median (25th, 75th percentile) for continuous variables that are not normally distributed; categorical data presented as number (%). p-value for trend across quartiles. Quartiles were derived from controls only. eGFR was calculated given the 4-variable MDRD Study equation and is given in ml/min/1.73m2; factor for conversion to ml/s/1.73 m2, x0.01667.
Abbreviations: SBP: Systolic Blood Pressure; HDL: High Density Lipoprotein; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; BMI, body mass index; UACR, urinary albumin-creatinine ratio; HTN, hypertension; ARIC, Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities; CTGF, connective tissue growth factor
Quartiles were derived from controls only.
Matching characteristics: eGFR only matched in ARIC.
