Impact of chronic kidney disease severity on causes of death after first-ever stroke: A population-based study using nationwide data linkage
Fig 2
Survival curve of first-ever stroke patients and hazard ratio of post-stroke mortality among different CKD stages.
(A) Adjusted Kaplan-Meier survival curve of first-ever ischemic stroke patients; (B) Adjusted Kaplan-Meier survival curve of first-ever hemorrhagic stroke patients. Adjusted factors include sex, age, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation and National Institute of Health Stroke Scale. (C) Hazard ratio for first-ever ischemic stroke mortality; (D) Hazard ratio for first-ever hemorrhagic stroke mortality. CKD: chronic kidney disease.
