Multivariable analysis: OR=Odds Ratio, HR=hazard Ratio, IRR=Incident Rate Ratio, RRR=Relative Risk Ratio. High risk APOL1 African Americans include (G1/G1, G2/G2/ G1/G2), low risk APOL1 African Americans <2 alleles (G1/G0, G2/G0, G0/G0).

Definitions: ESKD=endstage kidney disease, Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study, Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC), and African American Study of Kidney Disease and Hypertension (AASK), and Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC). RCT=randomized controlled trial, hypertension (HTN, albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR), focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), HIV associated nephropathy (HIVAN), chronic kidney disease (CKD).
