BMI, body mass index; Ccr, creatinine clearance; ESRD, end-stage renal disease.

aMedian (first quartile, third quartile) for continuous data or frequencies (percent) for categorical data.

bWilcoxon test or Fisher's exact test.

cn = 8 computed for ESRD participants that were not yet on dialysis.

dClearance in controls measured by 24 h urine collection, in ESRD participants that were not on dialysis pretransplantation by modification of diet in renal disease equation.
