  1. Abbreviations: ESRD, end stage renal disease
  2. *Adjust for age, gender, BMI, blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, nephrotic syndrome, albumin, total cholesterol, eGFR-EPI, 24-hour protein quantification and comedications
  3. 1Adjust for above factors except for nephrotic syndrome. None of the PMN patients at low risk had combined nephrotic syndrome
  4. 2No more than two patients progressed to ESRD or hemodialysis in low- and moderate-risk patients respectively, so only cumulative incidence of high-risk patients was analyzed
