a

Adjusted for age, sex, and randomized treatment assignment and clustered by clinical center. +GFR, additionally adjusted for 125I-iothalamate GFR; +UPCR, additionally adjusted for UPCR.

b

Multivariable model adjusted for age, sex, randomized treatment assignment, 125I-iothalamate GFR, UPCR, income, prior heart disease, smoking, serum albumin, and categories of body mass index. This model is the primary model of interest. + preceding GFR slope, additionally adjusted for the slope of 125I-iothalamate GFR in the 9 months preceding measurement of mineral metabolites; + mineral metabolites, additionally adjusted for serum calcium, phosphate, PTH, FGF23 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D.
