Weekly eGFR slope during the acute eGFR dip period (weeks 0–6) by treatment group and yearly eGFR slope during the post–acute eGFR dip readjustment period (weeks 6–52) by treatment group. (A) Weekly eGFR slope (weeks 0–6) and (B) yearly eGFR slope (weeks 6–52). Preservation of ≥0.75 ml/min per 1.73 m2 per year on eGFR slope predicts protection against CKD (9). 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; LSM, least squares mean. Analysis was performed on the full analysis set. aPlacebo-adjusted difference in LSM (95% CI).
