Adjusted hazard ratios and 95% CIs (shaded areas or whisker plots) of cardiovascular mortality (top row), coronary heart disease (second row), stroke (third row), and heart failure (bottom row) according to eGFR (left column) and ACR (right column) in the combined general population and high-risk cohorts. The reference is eGFR 95 ml/min/1.73m2 and ACR 5 mg/g (diamond). Dots represent statistical significance (P<0.05). *Adjustments were for age, sex, race/ethnicity, smoking, systolic blood pressure, antihypertensive drugs, diabetes, total and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations, and albuminuria (ACR or dipstick) or eGFR, as appropriate.

In the analyses of eGFR, there were 629,776 participants for cardiovascular mortality, 144,874 for coronary heart disease, 137,658 for stroke, and 105,127 for heart failure. In the analyses of ACR, there were 120,148 participants for cardiovascular mortality, 91,185 for coronary heart disease, 82,646 for stroke, and 55,855 for heart failure.
