Figure 5. BMDL and BMDU of ECd/Ecr producing a 10% reduction in eGFR. BMDL and BMDU of the 95%CI of BMD with a 10% reduction in eGFR were based on (A) exponential, (B) Hill, (C) natural logarithmic and (D) inverse exponential dose-response models. (E-G) BMDL and BMDU values were obtained by bootstrap model weighting and averaging with 200 repeats. BMDL: Benchmark dose lower; BMDU: benchmark dose upper; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; CI: confidence interval.
