Figure 3

Multivariate stratified analyses for the association between ACEi/ARB or CCB therapy and ESRD risk in patients with liver cirrhosis. ACEi: angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor; ARB: angiotensin receptor blocker; COX-2: cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor; CI: confidence interval; HR: hazard ratio; HBV: patients with hepatitis B virus infection; HCV: patients with hepatitis C virus infection; NSAID: nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug.
