Cardiometabolic & kidneyCohort study
Relationship Between Control of Cardiovascular Risk Factors and Chronic Kidney Disease Progression, Cardiovascular Disease Events, and Mortality in Chinese Adults
- Prospective cohort study
- matched cohort
Authors' conclusion
Patients with CKD who had controlled blood pressure, lipids, and glucose showed no excess risk of death, myocardial infarction, or stroke compared to the general population.
Study context
- Population
- Chinese adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) free of cardiovascular disease (CVD) or end-stage renal disease, Kailuan study20,254 CKD
- Exposure
- CKD with risk factor control vs non-CKD controls
- Non-CKD controlsn = 35,236reference
- Outcome
- MI, stroke, CKD progression and all-cause mortality
- Follow-up
- Median 12.2 to 12.8 years
