Hematuria | 4.08±2.28 | 1.60±2.23 | ND |
Values are mean ±SD.
eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; P/C, protein/creatinine ratio; ND, not determined.
Hematuria: Assessed by assigning scores according to number of red blood cells per high-power field (RBC/HPF).
≤5 RBC/HPF = 0, 6–10 RBC/HPF = 1, 11–15 RBC/HPF = 2, 16–20 RBC/HPF = 3, 21–25 RBC/HPF = 4, 26–30 RBC/HPF = 5, >30 RBC/HPF = 6.
