Data are the means (SD) or percentages. Means of age are sex-adjusted and frequencies of sex are age-adjusted.

Geometric mean values (95% confidence interval) of serum hs-CRP are shown due to skewed distribution.

CKD was defined as proteinuria (dipstick ≥ 1 +) or eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, which was calculated by using the modified Japanese Society of Nephrology Chronic Kidney Disease Initiative (JSN-CKDI) equation.

Abbreviations: CKD, chronic kidney disease: non-HDL-C, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; hs-CRP, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; ECG, electrocardiogram; SD, standard deviation.
