Model 1: unadjusted. Model 2: adjusted for age and sex. Model 3: model 2 adjusted for BMI, systolic BP, diastolic BP, N/L ratio, fasting blood glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL-c, LDL-c, and eGFR. UACR: albumin/creatinine ratios; BMI: body mass index; BP: blood pressure; N/L: neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio; HDL-c: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-c: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence index.
