Cl, confidence interval; Cr, creatinine; OR, Odds ratio; MCP-1, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1; BMI, body mass index; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; MAP, mean arterial blood pressure; MEST-C, histologic score based on mesangial hypercellularity, the presence of endocapillary proliferation, segmental glomerulosclerosis/adhesion, and severity of tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis, and crescents formation; T, tertile.

a

Model 1 adjusted for age, sex, MAP, BMI.

b

Model 2 adjusted for covariates in model 1 plus 24-hour proteinuria, eGFR and Oxford MEST-C score.

c

Model 3 adjusted for covariates in model 1 and 2 plus use of renin-angiotensin system inhibition and immunosuppression during follow-up.
