Table 5 |. Genetic Risk Score Analyses of Rapid3, CKDi25, End-stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) and Acute Kidney Injury (AKI).

Shown are the results of the unweighted Genetic Risk Score (GRS) across the seven variants identified for Rapid3 and/or CKDi25 counting Rapid3- or CKDi25-risk increasing alleles and its association with (A) Rapid3, (B) CKDi25, (C) ESKD, (D) and AKI. We show ORs for the comparison of genetic high-risk versus low-risk individuals (GRS≥7.5 versus GRS≤5.5). Associations are adjusted for age, sex and baseline eGFRcrea for Rapid3 and CKDi25 and adjusted for matching variables age-group and sex as well as quantitative age for ESKD and AKI.

High versus low risk group: 8–14 adverse alleles versus 0–5
