Multivariate Cox proportional hazards model for the risk of all-cause death (best fitted model).
| Adjusted hazard ratio (95% CI) |
P value | |
|---|---|---|
| Age | 1.78 (1.58 to 2.01) | <0.001 |
| Sex: (reference = men) | 0.68 (0.55 to 0.84) | <0.001 |
| Use of Insulin | 1.51 (1.21 to 1.89) | <0.001 |
| eGFR | 1.16 (1.02 to 1.32) | 0.03 |
| uACR | 1.30 (1.17 to 1.44) | <0.001 |
| UNa | 0.79 (0.71 to 0.88) | <0.001 |
| Copeptin | 1.19 (1.06 to 1.33) | 0.004 |
| NT-proBNP | 1.56 (1.38 to 1.75) | <0.001 |
Hazard ratios were standardized by calculating them for 1-SD increment of each continuous variable.
eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; uACR, urinary albumin to creatinine concentration ratio; UNa, urinary sodium concentration; NT-proBNP, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide.
uACR, copeptin, and NT-proBNP are log-transformed.
