Value of Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate and Albuminuria in Predicting Cardiovascular Risk in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes without Cardiovascular Disease

Table 2

Differences between patients with and without nephropathy based on estimated glomerular filtration rate.

Variable	Patients with eGFR > 60	Patients with eGFR < 60	P
	ml/min	ml/min	value
Age (years)	50 (10) †	63 (8) †	<0.01
Duration of disease (years)	8 (2) †	12 (4) †	<0.01
BMI	24.8 (4.0) †	22.4 (3.1) †	<0.01
CHDR	0.074 (0.046 to 0.116) ‡	0.128 (0.077 to 0.196) ‡	<0.01
FCHDR	0.031 (0.016 to 0.062) ‡	0.074 (0.046 to 0.116) ‡	<0.01

BMI: body mass index, eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate, CHDR: coronary heart disease risk, FCHDR: fatal coronary heart disease risk.
† indicates mean (SD); ‡ indicates median (IQR).
