  1. SE: standard error.
  2. The LP structured from the derivation set is as:.
  3. LP = smoking + hypertension + diabetes + 0.098*age + 0.120*BMI + 0.027*WC−0.041*HC + 0.019*DP−0.435*log2(Scr), in which: smoking: no = 0, yes = 0.245; hypertension: no = 0, yes = 0.622; diabetes: no = 0, yes = 0.411.
