Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; HR, hazard ratio; KFRT, kidney failure with replacement therapy; SD, standard deviation; WHR, waist-to-hip ratio.

a

Centered at median of each race-sex group.

b

Model 1 is random-effects model showing rate of decline (the interaction of each variable with follow-up time) adjusted for age (continuous), center (categorical), current smoker (yes/no), and prevalent coronary heart disease (yes/no) at baseline; model 2 additionally adjusted for hypertension medication (yes/no), systolic blood pressure (continuous), total cholesterol level (continuous), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level (continuous), triglyceride level (continuous, log transformed), estimated glomerular filtration rate (continuous), education level (high school graduate/not graduated), and annual family income (categorical) at baseline.

c

Black participants in the Minnesota and Washington County centers were excluded in the model because of small numbers.

d

P < 0.01.

e

P < 0.001.

f

P < 0.05.
