	Variable	Model A		Model B		Model C
		β (95% CI)	P- value	β (95% CI)	P- value	β (95% CI)	P- value
baPWV	Klotho (pg/mL)	−0.011 (− 0.07, 0.04)	0.582	−0.017 (− 0.07, 0.02)	0.329	0.003 (− 0.04, 0.05)	0.876

Model A: Adjusted for klotho, age and gender

Model B: Adjusted for klotho, age, gender, DM, HTN, BMI, and SBP

Model C: Adjusted forklotho, age, gender, DM, HTN, BMI, SBP, eGFR, hemoblogin, phosphorus, corrected Ca, and FGF23
