Albuminuria and vascular risk in females with chronic kidney disease
FY 2022-23
Summary
Cardiovascular (CV) disease is the leading cause of death in chronic kidney disease (CKD), and elevated CV risk occurs earlier in the CKD disease course in females compared to males. Albuminuria, a marker of CKD severity, has been independently associated with CV disease in females, however the mechanism of this association is not yet understood. This study aimed to determine the association between albuminuria and early markers of CV risk, including 1) blood pressure (BP), 2) aortic augmentation index (AIx), and 3) arterial stiffness in females with CKD.
