MethodsA total of 33 451 subjects who were older than 20 years and received healthy examination in Health Center of Anhui Provincial Hospital from January 2005 to December 2007 were enrolled in this study. CKD was defined as proteinuria, and/or hematuria, and/or using the simplified MDRD equation. ResultsThe prevalence of proteinuria was 2.74% (95%CI: 2.57%-2.92%), hematuria 7.67% (95% CI:7.39%-7.96%), and reduced eGFR 0.80%(95% CI:0.71%-0.90%). 9.92% (95% CI:9.60%-10.25%) subjects had at least one indicator of kidney damage. Age, female, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and hyperuricemia were independently associated with CKD. ConclusionsThe prevalence of chronic kidney disease is 9.92% in adult population receiving body check from urban area of Hefei, Anhui.
