Abstract:
Population aging, high prevalence of chronic disease, such as hypertension and diabetes, low chronic disease control rate and chronic disease related risk factors commonly observed in population are serious public health problems faced by China today, which have resulting in severe challenges in the prevention and control of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in China. Although the prevalence rate of CKD showed decrease in the past decade, the awareness of CKD in population remains low. To facilitate early detection and treatment of CKD, it is necessary to strengthen health education or promotion and opportunistic screening in high-risk populations, and improve the accessibility of testing and diagnosis. It is suggested to continue the surveillance for disease burden of CKD and related factors and strengthen the control of risk factors to further reduce the incidence and burden of CKD.
