Reference group is an odds ratio of 1. Values are presented as odds ratios (95% confidence intervals). The unadjusted model was n=1230. Model 1 was adjusted for age, sex, and race/ethnicity (n=1230). Model 2 was adjusted for model 1 plus randomization group, systolic BP, and serum glucose (n=1230). Model 3 was adjusted for model 2 plus baseline eGFR (CKD Epidemiology Collaboration equation) and urinary microalbumin (n=1168 [n=680 for <5%, n=158 for 5%–7%, and n=330 for ≥7% annual percent change in total kidney volume]). TKV, total kidney volume; BMI, body mass index.
