Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic kidney disease: global dimension and perspectives

TL;DR: Screening and intervention can prevent chronic kidney disease, and where management strategies have been implemented the incidence of end-stage kidney disease has been reduced, but awareness of the disorder remains low in many communities and among many physicians.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decline in Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate and Subsequent Risk of End-Stage Renal Disease and Mortality

TL;DR: Declines in estimated GFR smaller than a doubling of serum creatinine concentration occurred more commonly and were strongly and consistently associated with the risk of ESRD and mortality, supporting consideration of lesser declines in Estimated GFR (such as a 30% reduction over 2 years) as an alternative end point for CKD progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Significance of hyperuricemia as a risk factor for developing ESRD in a screened cohort.

TL;DR: Screenees with hyperuricemia were associated with a greater incidence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and strategies to control serum uric acid levels in the normal range may reduce the population burden of ESRD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multinational Assessment of Accuracy of Equations for Predicting Risk of Kidney Failure: A Meta-analysis

TL;DR: Kidney failure risk equations developed in a Canadian population showed high discrimination and adequate calibration when validated in 31 multinational cohorts, but the original risk equations overestimated risk in some non-North American cohorts.
