Background: Currently we face a significant increase in the new cases of end-stage renal disease in developing countries. Hence it seems vital to work on strategies and reduce its development and progression. Determining the related risk factors can provide insight into achieving these policy-making goals. Therefore, this study was conducted in order to identify risk factors associated with chronic kidney disease in Iranian adult population. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed in Shiraz, through a random cluster sampling in 819 including 340 male and 479 female adult participants. Body mass indexes, waist circumference, blood pressure and biochemical profile were assessed. We evaluated the prevalence of CKD according to glomerular filtration rate (GFR) as well as possible risk factors. GFR was calculated based on “Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration” creatinine equation. Result:  Mean age of our participants were 43.0± 14.0 years, and 58.5% were female. Our results showed 16.6% of patients with GFR less than 60 mL/min per 1.73. The proportion of participants having hypertension, obesity, high waist circumference, diabetes mellitus and history of cardiovascular disease were 17.3%,19.3%, 35%,9.4% and 5.3 %, respectively. Multiple regression analysis indicated an independent correlation between age, sex, dyslipidemia, and hypertension with CKD. Conclusion: This study indicates that CKD is a substantial health burden in Iranian adult population. Additionally, the results of this study addressed the importance of integrated strategies that aimed to identify, prevent, and treat non-communicable diseases fueling the development of CKD.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a silent epidemic. The true prevalence of CKD with in a population are very difficult to estimate, since early to moderate CKD were usually asymptomatic. ESRD in the consequence of CKD is one of the most expensive diseases to treat.Only way is to prevent it and Hence this was conducted to estimate the prevalence of CKD and its associated risk factors among adults in selected slums of Chennai.Methods: This is a cross sectional study done from May 2013 to June 2014 in selected slums of Chennai. The study population includes adult males and females. Multi stage sampling method used. Sample size covered was 400. A semi structured questionnaire used as tool. Based on the serum creatinine eGFR calculated using modified MDRD study equation and CKD prevalence was identified. The data was entered in MS excel and analyzed using SPSS version 21.Results: Total of 400 participants involved. Females were predominant in the study. Among them, 67 (16.8%) were diagnosed as CKD patients and Stage 1, 4.0% had stage 2, 3.6% had stage 3, 1.3% had stage 4 and 0.5% had stage 5 at the time of diagnosis.Conclusions: This study revealed prevalence of CKD among slum population was 16.8%. This study showed that old age, uncontrolled hypertension, uneducated, Diabetes with poor control, overuse of analgesics, H/o smoking, obesity, alcoholism, passive smoking, family H/o CKD and proteinuria were significant risk factor for CKD among study subjects. Slum population with risk factors should be regularly screened for CKD.

Abstract Background and Aims Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a global health problem with disproportionate burden in low- and middle-income countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. Despite these disparities, little is known of the prevalence and risk factors of CKD in the Caribbean. We sought to determine prevalence of CKD among patients attending ambulatory centres in Montserrat, an island that to date, has no facilities for renal replacement therapy. Method A cross-sectional observational study of Participants were individuals aged ≥18 years was performed. Random cluster sampling of at least 500 participants who attended clinic from January 1 to July 1, 2020 across all primary health care facilities on island was performed. Patients without lab values for creatinine were excluded. The main outcome measures was estimated CKD prevalence (as defined based on KDIGO 2012 guidelines of eGFR < 60mL/min/1.73m2 using creatinine based CKD-EPI for blacks; and estimated prevalence of CKD risk factors (Self-reported diabetes or hypertension and obesity, BMI> 30kg/m2). Multivariate Logistic regression was used to determine independent predictors of CKD. Results Three hundred and fifty-five participants (n = 355) were selected for participation. Participants’ mean age was 63 ± 17 years, with 60% (n=213) being female. 38% (n=135) had self-reported diabetes and 58% (n=201) had hypertension; and 44% were obese. Mean± SD estimated GFR was 81 ± 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 . One quarter of the participants (25%) had an eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2, indicating CKD. Age [95% CI, OR 1.03 (1.01–1.07)], Self-reported hypertension [95% CI, OR 2.09, (1.13–3.90)] and female gender [95% CI ,OR 0.20 (0.10, 0.39)] were independent predictors of reduced eGFR. Conclusion CKD and its risk factors were prevalent among adults in Montserrat. Consideration must be made for infrastructural and/or policy changes to be mandated, to slow the progression of CKD. Primary prevention initiatives can be implemented to reduce the associated morbidity, mortality and cost associated with CKD. There is room for further longitudinal studies to identify etiology, as well as factors affecting CKD progression. This study will also propel creation of the Montserrat arm of the Caribbean Renal Registry, to allow for future follow up of long-term effects, as well as ascertain risk factors for CKD progression.

Introduction: Self-rated health (SRH) has beeen considered an important marker of quality of life and an independent predictor of mortality in older adults. Objective: To determine the prevalence of poor SRH and identify risk factors associated with poor SRH among older adults residing in the Commune 18 of the city of Cali, Colombia, in 2009. Methods: A population-based cross-sectional study with a single-stage cluster sampling design. Sample included 314 persons aged 60 and older. The dependent variable, SRH was dichotomized into good (excellent, very good, good) and poor (fair, poor). Independent variables were sociodemographic, biological, mental, functional and geriatric syndromes. Logistic regression was used for multivariate statistical modeling. Results: Overall, 40.1% reported poor SRH (women 42.9%, men 35.0%). Factors independently associated with poor SRH were diabetes mellitus, depression, fear of falling and frailty syndrome (frail and pre-frail vs. non-frail). Widowed men reported poorer health than married men while other marital status (single/separated/divorced) was associated with better self rated health in women. Conclusion: Potential modifiable factors such as depression and frailty syndrome are important determinants for poor SRH in Colombian older adults.

Background: Comprehensive data regarding prevalence of coronary heart disease (CHD) and associated factors in different geographical regions are very important to our understanding of global distribution and evolution of CHD. The aim of this study was to assess the current prevalence of self-reported risk factors and CHD in Greek adult population. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in May 2014, during an election day, among residents of Saronikos municipality (Attica region). Data were collected from face-to-face interviews. The study sample included 2636 subjects (men, 49.5%; mean age, 50.5; range 20-95 years), with similar age and sex distribution to the target population. Results: The age-standardized prevalence rates of five major risk factors were as follows: type 2 diabetes 11.1%, hypercholesterolemia (cholesterol>240 mg/dl or using cholesterol-lowering medication) 23.8%, hypertension 27.2%, current smoking 38.9% and physical inactivity 43%. Of the participants, only 21% were free of any of these factors. Clustering of two to five risk factors was more frequent among persons aged 50 years and older as compared with younger ones (60% vs 27%, P=0.000). The age-adjusted prevalence of CHD was 6.3% (in men, 8.9%; in women, 3.8%) and that of myocardial infarction was 3.6% (in men, 5.2%; in women, 2.1%). According to multivariate analysis age, gender, education level, obesity, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, hypertension and ever smoking were strongly associated with CHD. Conclusion: Classic risk factors are highly prevalent and frequently clustered, especially in adults aged 50 years and older. These findings raise concerns about future trends of already increased rates of CHD. Multifactorial and integrated population-based interventions need to be applied to reduce the burden of cardiovascular conditions.

Aim: Awareness of chronic kidney disease (CKD) includes general knowledge of CKD and its risk factors. The current study aimed at assessing the public knowledge of CKD by using a validated tool. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted. The target population of this study was lay public, and health professionals were excluded from the study. Proportional numbers of study participants were included from each sub-city based on their total population size. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 21. Frequencies, table’s percentage, mean and standard deviation were used to describe participants’ responses: Independent T-test and one way ANOVA statics was used to identify factors associated with public knowledge of CKD. Results: A total of 350 individuals were approached, 301 of whom completed and returned the questionnaire, giving a response rate of 86%. In this study, the mean (S.D.) knowledge score of participants was 11.12 (±4.21), with a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 22. Concerning the distribution of the CKD knowledge score, half of the respondents score 11 and less. One way ANOVA revealed that educational level had a significant effect on knowledge of CKD. Respondents who had an educational background of degree had relatively higher knowledge scores than the other category participants (P-value= 0.015). An independent t-test was also performed but failed to reveal any association between socio-demographic characteristics and knowledge score. Conclusions: The general knowledge level of the Ethiopian population about CKD and its risk factors is low. Currently, non-communicable disease such as diabetes and hypertension becomes public health concern and are one of the significant risk factors for CKD. As the study indicated, even these groups of populations were not adequately informed regarding their increased risk of developing CKD. Keywords: chronic kidney disease, public knowledge, Ethiopia

Chronic kidney disease is one of the major health challenges in India. Cuttack district of the Odisha state of India is regarded as a hotspot for chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, there is limited information on true prevalence. This study estimates the prevalence of CKD in the Narsinghpur block of Cuttack district, Odisha. A cross-sectional study was conducted among population members aged 20–60 years. Using a multi-stage cluster sampling. 24 villages were randomly selected for mass screening for CKD. Blood samples were collected and glomerulus filtration rates were calculated. It was found that among the 2978 people screened, 14.3% were diagnosed with CKD and 10.8% were diagnosed with CKD without either diabetes or hypertension. In one-third of the sampled villages, about 20% population was diagnosed with CKD. The prevalence was higher among males (57%), in the population below 50 years of age (54%), lower socioeconomic groups (70%), and agricultural occupational groups (48%). Groundwater tube wells (49%) and wells (41%) were the main drinking water sources for CKD patients. This study highlights the need for detection of unknown etiologies of CKD and public health interventions for the prevention of CKD in India.
