Abbreviations: AU, Agatston units; CAC, coronary artery calcium, CKD, chronic kidney disease

a CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2

b Adjustments include examination 1 values for age, sex, race/ethnicity, diabetes medication use, educational attainment, smoking status, alcohol use, systolic blood pressure, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, physical activity, blood pressure and cholesterol-lowering medication use, and diabetes duration
