Figure 1 Adjusted subdistribution hazard ratio of venous thromboembolism (VTE) by albuminuria at fixed levels of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Models adjusted for age, sex, index year, income quintile, emergency department visits, general practitioner visits, and comorbid conditions (cardiac disease, stroke, coronary artery bypass graft, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, major hemorrhage, and hepatic disease) and VTE-related risk factors (lower-extremity fracture, recent surgery [including cesarean section], cancer [history or active], and recent hospitalization). Abbreviation: ACR, albumin-creatinine ratio. American Journal of Kidney Diseases 2017 70, 826-833DOI: (10.1053/j.ajkd.2017.07.003) Copyright © 2017 National Kidney Foundation, Inc.
