Comparative performances of predictors of CKD progression. (A) When comparing the performances of albuminuria and the CKD273 classifier in each eGFR stratum, CKD273 classifier outperformed albuminuria in patients with eGFR > 70 ml/min/1.73 m2. (B) The CKD273 subclassifiers performed better in predicting rapid CKD progression in the strata of patients with eGFR > 60 ml/min/1.73 m2. (C) The CKD273 subclassifiers developed for specific ranges of eGFR were statistically superior to CKD273 classifier in strata 1 and 3. (D) The performance of the best of either CKD273 classifier (strata corresponding to an eGFR > 70 ml/min/1.73 m2) or albuminuria (eGFR < 70 ml/min/1.73 m2) in each stratum was compared with that of the CKD273 subclassifiers, finding an improvement of the latter in strata of patients with eGFR > 60 ml/min/1.73 m2, that reached statistical significance in patients with eGFR > 80 ml/min/1.73 m2. The horizontal axis displays the difference between the AUC of both comparators for each figure. *P < 0.05 and #P < 0.001 vs the contrasted variable.
