Influence of changes in serum uric acid levels on renal function in elderly patients with hypertension: a retrospective cohort study with 3.5-year follow-up

Table 3 Effect of level of serum uric acid on eGFR using linear regression

	β (SE)	95 % CI	t	P
Model 1	-3.368 (0.989)	-5.309, -1.427	-3.406	0.014
Model 2	-4.274 (0.984)	-6.205, -2.344	-4.345	<0.001
Model 3	-5.684 (1.044)	-7.735, -3.633	-5.442	<0.001

Note: eGFR estimated glomerular filtration rate, SE standard error, CI confidence interval. Model 1 was not adjusted for any factor. Model 2 was adjusted for age and gender. Model 3 was adjusted for age, gender, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, antihypertensive therapeutic intensity score, triacylglycerol, high-density lipoprotein–cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol. The adjusted R² for the multiple linear regression model was 0.416
