Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the etiological composition and changing trends in chronic kidney disease.Methods:CKD patients from our hospital were in cluded in the study from three separate periods, 173 patients from 1990-1991, 956 patients from 2009-2010, and 1440 patients from 2018-2019. The etiology of CKD in patients between the younger and middle-aged group and the elderly group were compared using the χ2 test, and the Bonferroni method was used to correct the pairwise comparisons.Results:The leading cause of CKD in 1990-1991, 2009-2010, and 2018-2019 was chronic glomerulonephritis (52%), chronic glomerulonephritis (35%), and diabetes (36%), respectively. The distribution of the etiologies was different signficantly among the three cohorts (χ2=74.375, P<0.001). Compared with 1990-1991, the percentage of CKD related to diabetes (χ2=14.847, P=0.001) and hypertension (χ2=12.279, P=0.002) significantly increased, while chronic glomerulonephritis showed a downward trend (χ2=19.976, P<0.001). Among the elderly CKD patients, the leading cause of CKD in the three cohorts was chronic glomerulonephritis (34%), diabetes (40%), and diabetes (43%), respectively. Conversely, diabetes and hypertension have become the predominant causes in 2009-2010 and 2018-2019. Although chronic glomerulonephritis remained the leading cause of CKD in the past 30 years, the percentage declined gradually among the younger and middle-aged patients with CKD. The percentage of CKD related to diabetes (χ2=31.345, P<0.001) and hypertension (χ2=15.485, P<0.001) significantly increased. In addition, in the 2018-2019 cohort, there were 494 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and the percentage of ESRD related to diabetes and hypertension were 48% and 37%, respectively. Conclusion:Diabetes and hypertension have become the predominant causes of CKD in Chinese elderly patients. Although chronic glomerulonephritis was the leading cause among the younger and middle-aged patients with CKD, the percentage declined gradually. Additionally, diabetes and hypertension were also the predominant causes of ESRD.
