*N’s are # observations among participants with TnT measurements, with 7 observation excluded.

Model 1 adjusted for: age (per SD), female, race, diabetes, SBP categories, albumin (per SD), eGFR_CysC, ACR, and phosphate and FGF-23. Model 2 adjusted for: Model 1 + LV Mass, ejection fraction. * Systolic blood pressure. † Left ventricular.
