ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the prevalence,awareness and risk factors of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in general adult population of Anhui province,China. Methods A total of 3800 residents (older than 18 years) from Anhui province were randomly selected using a stratified,multi-stage sampling.All the residents were interviewed and tested for urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (abnormal:≥30 mg/g) and reduced estimated GFR [abnormal:＜60 ml·min1·(1.73 m2)-1]. The associations of CKD with demographic characteristics, healthy charactefistcs (hypertension,diabetes and hyperuricemia) were examined. Results Eligible data of 3374 subjects were enrolled in the study.After the adjustment of age and gender component,the prevalence of albuminuria was 9.8％ (95％CI 8.8％-10.9％),and reduced eGFR was 2.1％ (95％ CI 1.7％-2.7％).Approximately 10.4％(95％CI 9.4％-11.5％)subjects had at least one indicator of kidney damage.The awareness rate of CKD was 6.5％.Female,age,hypertension,diabetes mellitus,and hyperuricemia were independently associated with CKD.While obesity,hyperlipdemia.smoking and alcohol drinking were not associated with the prevalence of CKD. Conclusions The prevalace of chronic kidney disease is 10.4％ and the awareness rate is 6.5％ in general adult population of Anhui province.Independent risk factors associated with CKD are female,age,hypersion,diabetes mellitus and hyeruricemia.
