∗Expressed as odds ratio and its 95% confidence interval. ∗∗Significant value. Group A: dogs with no evidence of renal disease based on the IRIS staging for CKD [25] after six months of diagnosis of leishmaniosis. Group B: dogs with CKD classified as IRIS stage 1 to stage 3 and dogs euthanized or dead due to renal disease after six months of diagnosis of leishmaniosis. p: significance level (Mann–Whitney U test). UPC: urinary protein/creatinine ratio.
