Figure 2.
Hazard ratios of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] quartiles with increased albuminuria events stratified by urinary sodium excretion. Increased albuminuria is defined as urinary albumin excretion (UAE) >30 mg/24 h. (A) Crude and (B) multivariable models are shown. The model in B includes adjustment for age, sex, presence of type II diabetes, history of cardiovascular disease, current smoking, use of lipid-lowering drugs, use of BP-lowering drugs, body mass index, systolic BP, day of blood sampling, cholesterol/HDL cholesterol ratio, triglyceride level, and eGFR. Model A: P interaction low/high urinary sodium excretion × 25(OH)D quartiles =0.04 (crude model). Model B: P interaction low/high urinary sodium excretion × 25(OH)D quartiles =0.02 (multivariable model).
