Comparison of carotid atherosclerotic lesions among UACR tertile groups after adjusting for age and sex. (A) Comparison of mean CIMT among the three groups. The p-value for the three-group comparison was 0.01. (B) The distribution of carotid atherosclerotic plaque among the three groups. The p-value for the three-group comparison was 0.354 for one-sided plaque and 0.158 for two-sided plaque (C) Comparisons of the prevalence of carotid atherosclerotic plaque among three groups. The p-value for three group comparison was 0.026. (D) Odds ratio of carotid plaque for the 2nd and 3rd UACR tertile subjects in comparison to the 1st UACR tertile subjects. The bar represents the 95% confidence interval. Compared with the 1st tertile, *p = 0.047 and **p = 0.008, respectively. (E) Comparison of the prevalence of carotid stenosis among the three groups. The p-value for the three-group comparison was 0.954. (F) Odds ratio of carotid plaque for the 2nd and 3rd UACR tertile subjects in comparison to the 1st UACR tertile subjects. The bar represents the 95% confidence interval.
