    Unadjusted and multivariable-adjusted odds ratios of hyperphosphatemia according to quartiles of PIR (quartile 1 <100% of federal poverty level; quartile 2, 100% to 200%, quartile 3, 201% to 300%; qua

    Unadjusted and multivariable-adjusted odds ratios of hyperphosphatemia according to quartiles of PIR (quartile 1 <100% of federal poverty level; quartile 2, 100% to 200%, quartile 3, 201% to 300%; quartile 4 >300%). Quartile 4 was the reference group in both models. The multivariable model was adjusted for age, gender, black race, Hispanic ethnicity, diabetes, body mass index, estimated glomerular filtration rate, total caloric intake, and dietary phosphorus intake. The vertical bars represent 95% confidence intervals.

 This study was supported by the American Kidney Fund Clinical Scientist in Nephrology Fellowship (to Dr. Isakova) and grants K23DK081673 (to Dr. Gutiérrez), R01DK076116 and R01DK081374 (to Dr. Wolf) from the National Institutes of Health.
