Model 1: Adjusted for age, sex and body mass index (BMI) > 30 kg/m2.

Model 2: Model 1 + adjustments for excessive daytime sleepiness (ESS > 10) and poor sleep quality (PSQI > 5).

Model 3: Model 2 + adjustments for smoking and medical history of kidney disease (not in secondary analyses), proteinuria (not in secondary analyses), hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, coronary artery disease, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and stroke.

Model 4: Model 3 + adjustments for use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) medications (not applied to tertiary analyses).
