Urinary RBP as an Independent Predictor of Renal Outcome in Diabetic Nephropathy
Figure 3
Associations of urinary RBP (a), β2-MG (b) and NAG (c) levels with risk of ESRD with adjustment for age, gender and BMI using restricted cubic spline regressions. The solid line represents the estimated HR, the shaded area represents the 95% CI derived from restricted cubic spline regressions. ESRD, end stage renal disease; RBP, retinol-binding protein; β2-MG, β2-microglobulin; NAG, N-acetyl-ß-D-glycosaminidase; BMI, body mass index.
