Figure 1 Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels in diabetic patients for different phases of the Japanese Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (JDOPPS). Sample: diabetic patients with HbA1c levels as reported at enrollment in JDOPPS phases 2 to 5 (2002–2015), N = 2300.

Figure 2 Estimated hazard ratios of mortality with hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) categories in the Japanese Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (JDOPPS) diabetic population (2002–2015). Sample: diabetic patients with HbA1c levels as reported at enrollment in JDOPPS phases 2 to 5 (2002–2015), N = 2300. Unadjusted model: stratified by phase, with facility clustering taken into account. Adjusted model: additionally adjusted for age, sex, dialysis vintage, 12 comorbidities, hemoglobin, albumin and creatinine levels, and insulin use.
