aLow-eGFR: <60 mL/min/1.73 m2; bhigh-eGFR: ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2; cUACR1: <30 mg/g Cr; dUACR2: 30-299 mg/g Cr; eUACR3: >300 mg/g Cr; f compared to UACR1; g compared to UACR2. eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; UACR: urinary albumin : creatinine ratio; SDNN: standard deviation of the RR interval; RMSSD: the root mean square difference of successive RR intervals; SDANN: standard deviation of the averaged normal RR intervals for all 5-minute segments; SDNN index: the mean of the standard deviations of all normal RR intervals for all 5-minute segments; LF: low frequency; HF: high frequency; LF/HF: the ratio of low-to-high-frequency power.
