Time-dependent risk factors associated with the decline of estimated GFR in CKD patients

Background Targeting the modifiable risk factors may help halt the progression of CKD, thus risk factor analysis is better performed using the parameters in the follow-up. This study aimed to examine the time-dependent risk factors for CKD progression using time-averaged values and to investigate th...

Zusammenfassung:Background Targeting the modifiable risk factors may help halt the progression of CKD, thus risk factor analysis is better performed using the parameters in the follow-up. This study aimed to examine the time-dependent risk factors for CKD progression using time-averaged values and to investigate the characteristics of rapid progression group. Methods This is a retrospective cohort study enrolling 770 patients of CKD stage 3–4. Time-dependent parameters were calculated as time-averaged values by a trapezoidal rule. % decline of estimated GFR (eGFR) per year from entry was divided to three groups:
