Kaplan–Meier curves for composite cardiovascular and renal events stratified by quartiles of baseline hsCRP levels for overall patients (A), male (B) and female (C). In overall patients (A), the number of occurrence of events was 21, 20, 12, and 33 in Q1 (n = 292), Q2 (n = 290), Q3 (n = 290), and Q4 (n = 290), respectively. In male (B), the number of occurrence of events was 12, 13, 7, and 26 in Q1 (n = 168), Q2 (n = 168), Q3 (n = 167), and Q4 (n = 169), respectively. In female (C), the number of occurrence of events was 9, 7, 3, and 9 in Q1 (n = 122), Q2 (n = 123), Q3 (n = 121), and Q4 (n = 124), respectively.
