  • Age adjustment is based on the age distribution of diagnosed diabetes in US adults (18+years), which is derived from the following US Census Bureau data: 2012 Current Population Survey—Annual Social and Economic Supplement, and 2012 National Health Interview Survey—Diagnosed Diabetes. The estimated age distribution of diagnosed diabetes is 12.58% for age 18–44, 48.33% for age 45–64, and 39.09% for age 65+.

  • CKD, chronic kidney disease; CKD-EPI, the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate (mL/min/1.72 m2); UACR, urinary albumin:creatinine ratio (mg/g).
