Figure 1 Prediction of chronic kidney disease progression. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) plot demonstrating the ability of GFR, NT-proBNP, MR-proANP, and MR-proADM to predict kidney disease progression in patients with CKD; the areas under curve were 0.838 for GFR (black line), 0.752 for NT-prBNP (red line), 0.810 for MR-proANP (green line), and 0.876 for MR-proADM (blue line).

Figure 2 Prediction of chronic kidney disease progression. Kaplan–Meier plots showing renal disease progression in patients with CKD who were stratified into two groups according to the medians of baseline GFR (54 ml/min per 1.73 m2, a), NT-proBNP (119 ng/l, b), MR-proANP (106 pmol/l, c), and MR-proADM (0.75 nmol/l, d) at baseline.
