BMI, body mass index; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate. Values are expressed as mean ± SD.

Trend test 1: a trend test with a linear contrast between three time periods; trend test 2: a trend test with a contrast showing a plateau at a middle category between three time periods; trend test 3: linear trend across years.
