ACE, angiotensin-converting enzyme; ARB, angiotensin II receptor blocker; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; NHANES, National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey; SR−, no by self-report; SR+, yes by self-report.
Impaired kidney function defined by eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m2 by the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation or albumin-to-creatinine ratio ≥30 mg/g.
Chi-squared test.
Logistic regression adjusted for age, sex, and race/ethnicity.
Diabetes mellitus status is defined by self-reported history and hemoglobin A1c.
Hypertension status is defined by self-reported history and resting BP (in millimeters of mercury); it is further characterized by use of any self-described antihypertensive medication (BP medication) among those who are SR+.
