BMI: body mass index; DBP: diastolic blood pressure; eGFR: estimated GFR using the CKD-EPI equation; IQR: interquartile range; NMD: no mutation detected; PKD1-T: truncating PKD1 mutation; PKD1-NT: nontruncating PKD1 mutation; PKD2: PKD2 mutation; SBP: systolic blood pressure; std: standard deviation; SUA: serum uric acid; treatment: randomized to lisinopril + telmisartan; Ualbum: urinary albumin excretion.

The P values are based on analysis of variance (ANOVA) for continuous variables and the Chi-square test for categorical variables. For Ualbum the log value was used.

The rank sum test was used to compare years of follow-up between groups.
