Abstract:
Objective To investigate the etiology of chronic renal failure (CRF) in middle-aged and elderly people, and to analyze related factors influencing the prognosis. Methods The clinical data of 456 middle-aged and elderly CRF patients treated in our hospital from January 2018 to January 2021 were collected. The etiology and related factors affecting prognosis were analyzed. Results The etiology of 456 middle-aged and elderly patients with CRF was as follows: 220 cases of primary glomerulonephritis (48.24%), 78 cases of diabetic nephropathy (17.14%), 65 cases of hypertensive nephropathy (14.25%), and 37 cases of pyelonephritis (8.11%), 19 cases of drug-induced renal injury (4.16%), 18 cases of obstructive nephropathy (3.95%), 12 cases of lupus nephritis (2.63%), and 7 cases of polycystic kidney disease (1.54%). The age of onset in patients with primary glomerulonephritis and lupus nephritis was lower than that in patients with other causes (P<0.05). The results showed that 94 of the 456 patients died in the hospital, and the mortality rate was 20.6%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, severe infection, cerebrovascular disease, arrhythmia, hypertension stage III, left ventricular hypertrophy, and myocardial infarction were high-risk factors leading to poor prognosis (P<0.05). Conclusion The main causes of CRF in middle-aged and elderly patients are primary glomerulonephritis, diabetic nephropathy, and hypertensive nephropathy. Heart disease is the main factor leading to the poor prognosis of such patients. Efforts shall be put into disease prevention and control work for high-risk groups, so as to reduce the incidence and mortality of CRF.
