ALB and kidney disorder: S3 Table shows the population characteristics according to DW deviation score at enrollment. Age, CTR, serum creatinine, albumin, and basal kidney disease (diabetes) were significantly different among tertiles. Cox analyses show that the DW change rate at lower than 3% (group E) compared to at +1 to +2.9% (group B) was significantly associated with all-cause mortality in both 1st and 2nd tertiles, but not in the 3rd tertile, by unadjusted and fully-adjusted models (Table 6).
