Model 1: adjusted for: sex, age, baseline mGFR and ACR (mg/mmol).

Model 2: adjusted for: Model 1 + BMI, sBP and fasting glucose.

Model 3: adjusted for: Model 2 + ever smoker and BP medication.

a

Defined as 10% steepest decline (annual GFR decline rate >1.78 mL/min/1.73 m2 calculated using linear mixed model regression). n = 1289 in total and n = 131 with accelerated GFR decline.

b

Incident CKD, defined as new-onset GFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and/or ACR ≥3.0 at FU (n = 1256 in total and n = 37 with incident CKD). Only four variables were included in the fully adjusted model (Model 1) due to few outcomes.

*

P = 0.008, P = 0.011 and P = 0.009 for the quadratic term of MMP7 in Models 1–3.

**

P = 0.23 for the quadratic term of MMP7 in Model 1.
