Categorya: Cause-specific hazard ratio (95% confidence interval)
Undetectable Low High
Model 1 1.00 0.63 (0.46, 0.86) 0.39 (0.27, 0.57)
Model 2 1.00 0.59 (0.43, 0.81) 0.33 (0.23, 0.49)
Model 3 1.00 0.64 (0.46, 0.88) 0.39 (0.26, 0.58)
Model 4 1.00 0.70 (0.51, 0.97) 0.50 (0.34, 0.74)

N = 4,843, Nevents = 216.

aSubcategories according to levels of urine 6-bromotryptophan: undetectable levels; low: range: 0.135 to <0.84 (median); high: range: 0.84 (median) to 5.31.

Covariate adjustment:

Model 1: unadjusted.

Model 2: age + sex.

Model 3: Model 2 + smoking + waist-to-hip ratio + diastolic blood pressure + prevalent diabetes + coronary heart disease + high density lipoprotein cholesterol + low density lipoprotein cholesterol + diuretic use.

Model 4: Model 3 + urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio.

Model 5: Model 4 + eGFR.
