Odds ratio | 95% CI | P | |
---|---|---|---|
Presence of DN | 0.055 | 0.006–0.502 | 0.010 |
Aggressive treatment | 4.931 | 1.464–16.611 | 0.010 |
CI, confidence intervals; DN, diabetic nephropathy; NDRD, nondiabetic renal diseases.
Treatment response: proteinuria <3.5 g/day and least 50% reduction from initial value, and stable renal function from baseline (change in creatinine <25%), or improvement of estimated glomerular filtration rate >50% from baseline over a 6-month period of observation.
