Characteristics of the Relationship of Kidney Dysfunction with Cardiovascular Disease in High Risk Patients with Diabetes

Figure 1

Association reduced of eGFR with CVD in patients with diabetes and patients without. The ORs for 5 different stages of eGFR are shown with their 95% CI. In patients without diabetes there is a significant linear increase in ORs for chronic ischemic heart disease as eGFR declines to <15 mL/min/1.73 m2 (). In patients with diabetes the trend is not statistically significant.
