  1. Model 1: age, sex, and body mass index.
  2. Model 2: Model 1 covariates plus diabetes mellitus and history of cardiovascular disease.
  3. Model 3: Model 2 covariates plus hemoglobin, platelet count, serum creatinine, serum uric acid, serum corrected calcium, serum phosphorus, serum albumin, intact parathyroid hormone, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein.
  4. Model 4: Model 3 covariates plus daily ultrafiltration, 24-hour urine volume, total weekly Kt/V, and glucose exposure.
  5. HR: hazard ratio; SHR: subdistribution hazard ratio; CI: confidence interval; GLR: glucose to lymphocyte ratio.
