Fig 1 Scatter plot of baPWV against estimated CCr. The linear relationship is drawn by the equation of baPWV = 13.52 × (CCr) + 1,799. r2 = 0.0849; P < 0.001; n = 3,387. To convert CCr in mL/min to mL/s, multiply by 0.01667. American Journal of Kidney Diseases 2006 47, 790-797DOI: (10.1053/j.ajkd.2006.01.027) Copyright © 2006 National Kidney Foundation, Inc.

Fig 2 Adjusted mean baPWV for age, SBP, and sex by CCr level (CCr ≥ 90, 60 to 89, and 30 to 59 mL/min) and proteinuria status (absent and present). Numbers of subjects in each column were 1,530, 1,456, and 153 (left to right) for the near side (proteinuria absent) and 123, 95, and 30 (left to right) for the far side (proteinuria present). Trends for both CCr levels and proteinuria status were significant (P < 0.0001). To convert CCr in mL/min to mL/s, multiply by 0.01667.
