: unstandardized coefficient for GFR estimated by MDRD method; : unstandardized coefficient for GFR estimated by CG method. BetaMDRD: standardized coefficient for GFR estimated by MDRD method; BetaCG: standardized coefficient for GFR estimated by MDRD method. SE: standard error; AdipoQ: adiponectin. HTN: hypertension; BMI: body mass index. Adjusted R-square for univariate model = 0.03, adjusted R-square for multivariate model = 0.30 when eGFRMDRD is the dependent variable. Adjusted R-square for univariate model = 0.07; adjusted R-square for multivariate model = 0.56 when eGFRCG is the dependent variable. Significance level set at 0.05. |
