Comparisons of associations of treatment with degludec or glargine U100 with the
risks of MACE, cardiovascular death, and all-cause mortality and the rate of severe
hypoglycemia by baseline GFR category. *P value for the
interaction between treatment and baseline GFR category;†rate of
events/100 patient years of exposure. Time from randomization to first MACE, cardiovascular
death, and all-cause mortality were analyzed using Cox proportional hazard regression
models with treatment, baseline GFR category, and interaction between treatment and
baseline GFR category as fixed factors. The number of severe hypoglycemic events was
analyzed using a negative binomial regression model with log-link function and the
logarithm of the duration of observation time (100 patient years) as offset in addition to
randomized treatment, baseline GFR category, and their interactions. Data on the proportion
of patients with events and the rate of severe hypoglycemic events are based on observed
numbers. The MACE and severe hypoglycemia analyses have already been published
[25]. CI
