a

Interactions between albuminuria group and diagnoses of cystic kidney disease, glomerulonephritis, and diabetic nephropathy, after adjustment for age, sex, country, race, treatment allocation, prior diseases and medication, lipid levels, smoking, blood pressure, body mass index, phosphate level, hemoglobin level, and eGFR.
