N1 refers to number of patients in the safety analysis set; n percentages are based on N1. CUA, calcific uremic arteriolopathy; BMI, body mass index; CABG, coronary artery bypass grafting; PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention.

a

Wilcoxon rank sum test was used for continuous variables and chi-square test was used for categorical variables. Comparisons are between patients who experienced a CUA adverse event compared with those who did not.
