Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the prevalence of chronic kidney disease(CKD)in community of Suzhou and explore the comorbid health conditions.Methods:The population over 60 years old undergoing health physical examination in community of Suzhou were selected as screening subjects for CKD.Examination data were collected, and other health data were obtained through residents' health records and chronic disease management systems.A total of 7 387 participants were enrolled.Results:In the population of 7 387 individuals, detected cases with CKD were 2 771, with detection rate of 37.5%, awareness rate of 13.9%.The 2 521 patients(91.0%=2 521/2 771 of total CKD patients)with CKD 1-2 stage, and 2222 patients(80.2%=2 222/2 771)with low and medium risk were detected out.The detection rates of CKD were significantly higher in group with hypertension, diabetes, hyperuricemia, hyperlipidemia, obesity and stroke than in the group without those diseases(all P<0.05). With the increase of the number of comorbidity in patients with CKD, the detection rate of CKD was increased( χ2=74.658, P<0.001). In a total of 2771 CKD patients, 33.6% had 1 comorbid condition, 23.4% had two comorbid conditions, and 19.8% had 3 or more comorbid conditions.In the declined-eGFR group, patients with three or more comorbid conditions accounted for 34.0%, which was significantly higher than that in the normal-eGFR group(18.4%)( χ2=35.042, P<0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that women, advanced age, hypertension and having 3 or more comorbid conditions were independent influencing factors for the CKD detection rate.People with three or more comorbid conditions had a 1.58-fold increased risk for developing CKD as compared with those without comorbid condition(95% CI: 1.30-1.91, P<0.001). Conclusions:The prevalence of CKD in Suzhou community elderly population is high, but the awareness rate is low.A large number of early and low-and moderate-risk of CKD patients have been detected out.Comorbid conditions are prevalent in older patients with CKD.With the decrease of renal function, the number of comorbidity in CKD patients significantly increased.Early screening for CKD in the elderly population is very necessary, especially in those with hypertension and 3 or more comorbid conditions.
