Table 2.

Incidence rate and incidence rate ratio of ESRD by AF

	Events/No. at risk	Incidence Rate per 1000 person-years (95%CI)	Incidence Rate Ratio (95%CI) ^†
No AF	254 / 22,798	1.59 (1.40, 1.79)	1 (ref)
AF	41 / 2,155	2.91 (2.14, 3.96)	1.72 (1.23, 2.40)

^†

Incidence rate ratio calculated with no AF as the reference group.

AF=atrial fibrillation; CI=confidence interval; ESRD=end-stage renal disease.
