Model 1: adjusted for age, sex, race/ethnicity, education. Model 2: Model 1+height, weight, smoking, physical activity level, diabetes, eGFR, urine ACR, systolic blood pressure, antihypertensive medications. Model 3: Model 2+ calcium, phosphorus, FGF‐23, PTH/25(OH)D (alternative measure to the predictor). ACR indicates albumin to creatinine ratio; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; HR, hazard ratio; pys, person years.
