Figure 2. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) over time in the short androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) (<3 years; n=47) and continuous ADT (>5 years; n=41) groups. The eGFR values at each measurement point and before treatment. The eGFR decreased by 4.91 ml/min in the short ADT group and by 2.89 ml/min in the continuous group over the 5-year period following treatment initiation. The eGFR decreased by 0.98 ml/min in the short ADT group and by 0.58 ml/min in the continuous group over the 1-year period following treatment initiation. No significant difference in the eGFR was observed between groups at any measurement point.
