Model adjusted for adjusted for classes of albuminuria, eGFR, age, gender, educational level, diabetes, hypertension, history of cardiovascular disease, body mass index, alcohol use, cholesterol, and smoking. In the sensitivity analyses, no significant associations were found in the two older tertiles of age CKD-EPI, Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology Collaboration.
