Table 4.

AUC for potential markers of eGFR decline by ≥25% after one and two years of follow-up.

Predictive variables AUC CI P-level
eGFR decline by 25% after 1 year of follow-up, N = 10
Proteinuria/creatinine 0.724 0.606–0.823 0.056
Previous acute rejection 0.675 0.559–0.777 0.055
Serum β2MG 0.724 0.612–0.819 0.026
Proteinuria/creatinine + previous acute rejection + serum β2MG 0.910 0.818–0.965 <0.001

eGFR decline by 25% after 2 years of follow-up, N = 12
Serum β2MG 0.668 0.553–0.770 0.047
Time after transplantation 0.712 0.599–0.808 0.008
Serum β2MG + time after transplantation 0.821 0.719–0.899 <0.001

β2MG: β2-microglobulin; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; AUC: areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve; CI: 95% confidence interval; N: number of patients with certain decline in eGFR; only variables that significantly influenced the eGFR decline in univariate logistic regression are included.
