3 Figure 2 Fully adjusted infection rates/1,000 person-years (with 95% confidence intervals) against category of estimated glomerular filtration rate, by proteinuria status. Solid line, patients with a history of proteinuria; dashed line, patients with no history of proteinuria. Rates adjusted for age (updated), sex, socioeconomic status by practice, financial year prior to or post 2004, ischemic heart disease (updated), congestive cardiac failure (updated), hypertension (updated), cerebrovascular disease (updated), other dementia (updated), chronic lung disease (updated), smoking (baseline), hemoglobin A1c level (baseline), and antidiabetes medication history (baseline). ∗LRTI y-axis scale is 10-fold greater than the pneumonia and sepsis scales.
