Association of eGFR and urine ACR with hemorrhage when examined as a continuous variable

Cohort and Variable Unadjusted RR (95% CI)a Adjusted RR (95% CI) P Value
Total cohort
 eGFR, ml/min per 1.73 m2 0.73 (0.72 to 0.74) 0.91 (0.89 to 0.92)b <0.001
 Urine ACR, mg/g 1.02 (1.01 to 1.02) 1.02 (1.01 to 1.02)c <0.001
Age ≥66 yr old
 eGFR, ml/min per 1.73 m2 0.81 (0.80 to 0.83) 0.91 (0.89 to 0.93)b,d <0.001

a

RR reported for a 10-U increase of eGFR or 88.5-U increase of ACR. For ACR, to convert from milligrams per gram to milligrams per millimole, multiply by 0.113.

b

Adjusted for age (per year), sex, income quintile (lowest referent), ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease, coronary revascularization, deep venous thrombosis, atrial fibrillation, hypertension, congestive heart failure, diabetes, prior hemorrhage, residential status, year of index date (2002 referent), and urine ACR (continuous).

c

Adjusted for age (per year), sex, income quintile (lowest referent), ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease, coronary revascularization, deep venous thrombosis, atrial fibrillation, hypertension, congestive heart failure, diabetes, prior hemorrhage, residential status year of index date (2002 referent), and eGFR (continuous).

d

Analysis restricted to individuals ages ≥66 years old. Also adjusted for anticoagulant, antiplatelet, and proton pump inhibitor use.
