When adjusting for age (years), sex, baseline eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m2), baseline uACR (mg/g), diabetes (yes/no), hypertension (yes/no), cardiovascular disease (yes/no), systolic blood pressure (mmHg), BMI (kg/m2), smoking status (yes/no), and use of RAAS inhibitors, SGLT2 inhibitors, and statins, low educational attainment remained independently associated with the composite primary outcome (adjusted HR 1.47, 95% CI 1.04–2.36, p = 0.04) (Table 3). Here, SLC5A2 is linked to hypertensive disorder.
