Figure 1 Prevalence of coronary artery calcification and peripheral artery calcification in the early (open bars) and advanced (solid bars) CKD groups adjusted for age and sex. Compared with the early CKD group, the advanced CKD group had a significantly higher prevalence of CAC (73% vs. 38%, P < 0.01) and PAC (85% vs. 35%, P < 0.0001)Table 3.

Figure 2 Unadjusted distribution of coronary artery calcification scores in the early (open bars) and advanced (solid bars) CKD groups. Only 7% of patients in the early CKD group had CAC scores greater than 400 compared to 39% of patients in the advanced CKD group. In the early CKD group, 59% of patients had no CAC, while only 27% of the patients in the advanced CKD group had no CAC. Age- and gender-adjusted log-transformed CAC scores were significantly higher in advanced CKD group patients than in early CKD group (4.52 vs. 2.80, P = 0.0116) Table 3.
