Epidemiology and risk of cardiovascular disease in populations with chronic kidney disease

TL;DR: CKD-associated risk factors for CVD are examined and the prediction and management of CVD risk in patients with CKD is considered, including research and implementation gaps.

Social deprivation and prevalence of chronic kidney disease in the UK: workload implications for primary care

TL;DR: In the most deprived areas, there is an increased burden of major chronic disease and a higher caseload for clinicians, which needs to be addressed.

Albuminuria and posttransplant chronic kidney disease stage predict transplant outcomes.

TL;DR: EGFR and albuminuria may be used together to identify, evaluate, and manage transplant recipients who are at higher risk of adverse clinical outcomes and are associated with an increased risk of mortality and graft loss.

Impact of Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate on Vascular Disease Extent and Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Patients Without Chronic Kidney Disease

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) was examined.

High normal levels of albuminuria and risk of hypertension in Indo-Asian population

TL;DR: High normal levels of albuminuria as measured by UACR predict hypertension in non-diabetic Indo-Asians, and this relationship may be enhanced in individuals with low baseline SBP, according to the multivariable model.

K/DOQI clinical practice guidelines for chronic kidney disease: Evaluation, classification, and stratification

TL;DR: In the early 1990s, the National Kidney Foundation (K/DOQI) developed a set of clinical practice guidelines to define chronic kidney disease and to classify stages in the progression of kidney disease.

Chronic kidney disease and the risks of death, cardiovascular events, and hospitalization

TL;DR: The longitudinal glomerular filtration rate was estimated among 1,120,295 adults within a large, integrated system of health care delivery in whom serum creatinine had been measured between 1996 and 2000 and who had not undergone dialysis or kidney transplantation.

Using standardized serum creatinine values in the modification of diet in renal disease study equation for estimating glomerular filtration rate.

TL;DR: The MDRD Study equation has now been reexpressed for use with a standardized serum creatinine assay, allowing GFR estimates to be reported in clinical practice by using standardized serumcreatinine and overcoming this limitation to the current use of GFR estimating equations.
