FIGURE 3:

ORs of CKD complications by male gender in models with eGFR or with iothalamate GFR indexed to alternative body size measures. ORs with 95% confidence interval are shown for men relative to women in the CRIC (grey lines) and MDRD (black lines) cohorts, adjusted for age and race. Complications defined as: hyperphosphataemia, serum phosphorus ≥ 4.6 mg/dL; hyperkalaemia, serum potassium > 5.0 mM; acidosis, serum bicarbonate < 22 mEq/L; anaemia, haemoglobin < 13 and <12 g/dL for men and women, respectively.
