The composite outcome was incident end-stage renal disease or a reduction of 50% in the eGFR from baseline. The APOL1 risk was based on the recessive genetic model. Model 1 is the multivariable-adjusted base model with adjustment for age, sex, clinical site, and baseline eGFR. Model 2 includes all the variables in model 1 plus education level, treatment by a nephrologist, and the use of either an angiotensin-converting–enzyme inhibitor or an angiotensin-receptor blocker. Model 3 includes all the variables in model 2 plus systolic blood pressure, body-mass index, glycated hemoglobin level, and smoking status. Model 4 includes all the variables in model 3 plus the total 24-hour urinary protein excretion.
