Data are a number of screened subjects and percent (%) if not otherwise specified. ACR: urinary albumin/creatinine ratio. eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate. Microalbuminuria: ACR 30–300 mg/dL. *Hypertension is defined as participants with SBP >140 mm Hg or DBP >90 mm Hg, or receiving treatment for previously diagnosed hypertension. °Diabetes is defined as participants reporting a history of, or currently treated for diabetes mellitus, or with fasting blood glucose level ≥126 mg/dL.
