2. Figure 1
Adjusted models for renal end points. Association of the social network score and relative odds (solid line) with 95% confidence interval (dashed lines) with (a) incidence or progression of CKD, or death (combined outcome), and (b) incident albuminuria. The median of the first tertile is used as reference. Histograms show the distribution of the social network score in the respective outcome state. The model is adjusted for baseline age; duration of diabetes; glomerular filtration rate; status of albuminuria; sex; ONTARGET randomization arms; Δ-urinay albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) to progression, which was defined as the difference between the participant-specific cut point of developing a new micro- or macroalbuminuria and UACR at baseline on the log-scale; body mass index; mean arterial blood pressure; fasting plasma glucose; and previous use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers.
