  1. The adjusted model was adjusted for age, race, smoking history, diastolic BP, BMI, hemoglobin, albumin, eGFR, serum chloride, prescription of beta-blockers, prescription of MRA, prescription of diuretics, and prescription of urate-lowering agents
  2. Abbreviation: BMI, body mass index; BP, blood pressure, eGFR, the rate of estimated glomerular filtration rate; MRA, mineralocorticoid-receptor antagonist; SHR, the sub-distribution hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval
