Cumulative incidence of  ≥ 40% decline in CKD-EPI eGFR and death (A) and doubling of serum creatinine and death (B) stratified by plasma sTNFR1 quartile over the study period. Cumulative incidence of events of interest (≥ 40% decline in CKD-EPI eGFR and doubling of serum creatinine) and the competing risk of death were calculated using the cuminc function in the R package cmprsk. Cumulative incidence plots were generated using ggcompetingrisks from the R package survminer. Panels are labelled by baseline plasma sTNFR1 quartiles 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The cumulative incidence of renal outcomes over the study period is depicted by the red lines; the cumulative incidence of the competing risk of death is represented by the blue lines. In plasma sTNFR1 quartiles 3 and 4, the competing risk of death occurred more commonly than renal outcomes including ≥ 40% decline in CKD-EPI eGFR and doubling of serum creatinine.
