Distribution of urine albumin (upper two figures), urinary creatinine (middle figure), and urinary albumin creatinine ratio (lower two figures) in Korean men. (DOCX)</p

Fig 4 -

Relationship between albuminuria and FRS in Korean women (A) and men (B). Urine albumin-to-creatine ratio was categorized into 20 groups (x-axes) based on ascending order. FRS was calculated based on the equation provided by a study [22]. Abbreviation: FRS, Framingham risk score.</p

Fig 1 -

UACRs according to CVD status in Korean women (A) and men (B). Left side boxplots (grey and brown colored boxes) indicate median-based summary statistics; specifically, the middle, upper, and lower lines describe median, 75, and 25 percentile values, respectively. Right side boxplots indicate mean-based summary statistics, in which the middle, upper, and lower lines illustrate mean, one standard deviation values, respectively.</p

Fig 3 -

Relationship between albuminuria and cardiometabolic risk factors in Korean women (A) and men (B). Top four graphs (i.e., age, TC, HDL-C, SBP) were obtained by multivariate linear regression after setting the four predictors arranged separately as dependent variables. UACR was determined as the independent variable, and other remnant six predictors as covariates. The lower three graphs (i.e., AHM, smoking, diabetes) were obtained by multivariate logistic regression set to the same conditions as the multivariate linear regression. All x-axes indicate beta-coefficients obtained from the multivariate linear or logistic regressions. UACR levels were log-transformed for the associational analyses. Abbreviations: TC, total cholesterol; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; SBP, systolic blood pressure; HTN Med, hypertension medication; DM, diabetes mellitus.</p

Fig 2 -

Relationship between UACR and cardiometabolic risk factors in Korean women (A) and men (B). Beta values were measured by linear regression after setting continuous variables, including age, TC, HDL-C, and SBP as dependent variables and UACR subgroups as independent variables. In case of features exhibiting binomial distribution, such as AHM use, smoking, and diabetes, the ratio of presence of disease or status was set as the dependent variable in the linear regression for the calculation of the Beta value. Abbreviations: UACR, urinary albumin-creatinine ratio; Beta, beta-coefficient; AHM, anti-hypertensive medication; HDL-C. high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; SBP, systolic blood pressure; TC, total cholesterol.</p
