Poisson regression analysis of eGFR slope at −2.0 mL/min/1.73 m2/year for 18 participants who met the UCPR goal

Variable Relative risk 95% CI p Value
Age: ERT started (years) 1.072 1.008 to 1.139 0.026
Interval: ERT start to visit 0 (years) 0.881 0.771 to 1.006 0.062
Average systolic blood pressure (mm Hg) 1.011 0.991 to 1.033 0.287
Average UPCR during treatment (mg/g) 1.479 0.630 to 3.468 0.369
Male gender 1.130 0.637 to 2.005 0.675
Medication score 1.392 0.859 to 2.254 0.179

Relative risk presented as ratios (95% CI). Medication score defined as: 0, none; 1, ACE inhibitor or ARB; 2, ACE inhibitor plus ARB, or diuretic; 3, ACE inhibitor or ARB at maximum dose. p<0.05 for risk ratios from Poisson regression model (shown in bold).

ARB, angiotensin type 1 receptor blocker; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; ERT, enzyme replacement therapy; UPCR, urinary protein to creatinine ratio (g/g).
