Estimation of 24‐h sodium excretion was based on the Tanaka formula for spot urines.

Model 1: crude.

Model 2: adjusted for baseline systolic blood pressure (BP).

Model 3: adjusted for baseline systolic BP, age, and sex.

Model 4: adjusted for baseline systolic BP, age, sex, and race.

Model 5: adjusted for baseline systolic BP, age, sex, race, and body mass index (BMI).

Model 6: adjusted for baseline systolic BP, age, sex, race, BMI, and baseline estimated glomerular filtration ratio (eGFR).

Model 7: adjusted for baseline systolic BP, age, sex, race, BMI, baseline eGFR, and baseline antihypertensive drug use.
