  1. Model 1: adjusted for age, sex, BMI at baseline
  2. Model 2: further adjusted for triglyceride, HDL-c, diabetes and hypertension status, current smoking and drinking status, use of antihypertensive drugs, use of antidiabetic drugs, urinary ACR, eGFR at baseline
  3. Model 3: further adjusted for TPOAb, TGAb at baseline
  4. P for trend values for percentages of incident CKD are calculated by using Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel (CMH) method
  5. Data are odds ratios (95% confidence intervals)
  6. ACR albumin-to-creatinine ratio, BMI body mass index, CKD chronic kidney disease, eGFR estimated glomerular filtration rate, FT3 free triiodothyronine, FT4 free thyroxine, HDL-c high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, TSH thyroid-stimulating hormone, TPOAb thyroid peroxidase antibody, TGAb thyroglobulin antibody
