There were 36,388 PWH enrolled in CNICS. 1,034 PWH were excluded for either no serum creatinine measurements or fewer than 2 measurements during the study period. 914 PWH developed CKD prior to study enrollment, 15 were either intersex or had no birth sex recorded, and 427 PWH were transgendered. Consequently, a final cohort of 33,998 PWH was derived of whom 6,105 were female and 27,893 were male.
