Changes in renal cortical thickness, renal length measurements, and renal function tests during the follow-up period

	Renal cortical thickness (mm)	Renal length (mm)	eGFR (mL/min)	Creatinine level (mg/dL)	Albumin- to-creatinine ratio
At the beginning of the study	5.76	91.29	35.92	2.61	2.41
After 24 mo	5.28	90.24	28.38	3.52	3.46
P-value	<0.001	<0.001	<0.001	<0.001	<0.001

Values are presented as mean value.
