Values are expressed as n (%). NDRD, nondiabetic renal disease; DN, diabetic nephropathy; HTN, hypertension.

aP value is from a two-sample test of proportions
bThirteen cases of secondary FSGS in the NDRD alone subgroup and 16 cases of secondary FSGS in the DN plus NDRD subgroup also showed features of hypertensive nephrosclerosis.
cIncludes increased muscle mass (n=1), solitary kidney (n=1), and familial FSGS (n=1)
