Research Article: A Nomogram for Predicting the Risk of CKD Based on Cardiometabolic Risk Factors

Date Published: 2023-09-11

Abstract:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined by abnormalities in kidney structure or function that persist for at least months. The criteria for diagnosing CKD include an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than mL/min per . m, albuminuria (urinary albumin creatinine ratio, UACR ? mg/g), abnormal urine sediment, abnormal kidney histology, abnormal kidney imaging, electrolytes and other abnormalities due to tubular disorders and a history of kidney transplantation. The global prevalence of CKD continues to increase in recent years, making it one of the greatest public health challenges to all nations. Although only % of CKD patients will progress to end-stage kidney disease, which requires renal replacement therapy, CKD patients are at increased risk of cardiovascular complications, cardiovascular death and all-cause death., However, CKD awareness is low in the general population, and early CKD stages are silent and lack specific symptoms. A considerable number of patients are not referred to the clinical until the onset of symptomatic disease. Given this, early detection of CKD in individuals who are at high risk raises clinical concerns as accessible and inexpensive treatments can be implemented in this stage.
