Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major health problem and one of the public health threats with an increasing prevalence and burden. However, early diagnosis of this disease is challenging in Iran due to insufficient information. Objectives: In the present study, we aimed to determine the prevalence of CKD and its predisposing factors in Yazd city, Iran. Patients and Methods: We conducted this cross-sectional study using the recruitment phase data of Yazd Health Study (YaHS) collected during 2013-2014. Data of 3649 individuals, age 20-69 years were analyzed. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was calculated using the modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) formula and values less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 were defined as CKD. Logistic regression was employed to determine the risk factors of CKD. Results: The mean age of participants was 46.0 ± 13.8 years and the overall prevalence of CKD was 6.6 percent (7.6% for women and 5.4% for men). The disease prevalence was 21.5% in the age group of 60-69 years. The prevalence of CKD had a significant relationship with older age, obesity, female gender, diabetes, high blood pressure and history of heart disease. Conclusion: CKD has a high prevalence in the population of this region of Iran. The most important modifiable risk factors for CKD included diabetes and high blood pressure. Therefore, the health system should strive for early detection of CKD in order to prevent morbidity and mortality of this disease.

Abstract Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major health problem with growing prevalence in sub-Saharan Africa. We present the prevalence and determinants of CKD in Garoua and Figuil cities of the North region of Cameroon. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted from January to June 2018 in the two cities, using a multi-level cluster sampling. All adults with low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (< 60 ml/min/1.73 m2) by Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation and/or albuminuria (≥ 30 mg/g) were reviewed three months later. Logistic regression models (accounting for the sampling strategy) were used to investigate the predictors of the outcomes. Results: A total of 433 participants were included, with a mean age (95%CI) of 45.0 (43.4-46.6) years, 212 (48.7%) men, 294 (67.9%) from Garoua and 218 (45.6%) with no formal education. Risk factors for chronic nephropathy were highly prevalent including longstanding use of street medications (52.8%), herbal medicines (50.2%) and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (50%), alcohol consumption (34.4%), hypertension (33.9%), overweight/obesity (33.6%), hyperuricemia (16.8%), smoking (11.3%) and hyperglycemia (6.5%). The prevalence of CKD was 11.7% overall, 10.7% in Garoua and 13% in Figuil participants. Equivalents figures for CKD G3-5 and albuminuria were 2.8%, 2.0% and 4.5%; and 9.1%, 9.3% and 8.5% respectively. History of diabetes, increase systolic blood pressure, hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia were predictors of CKD. Conclusion: The prevalence of CKD is as high in these northern cities as previously reported in southern cities of Cameroon, driven mostly by known modifiable risk factors of chronic nephropathy.

Background: Most people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are not aware of their condition. Objectives: To assess screening criteria in identifying a population with or at high risk for CKD and to determine their level of control of CKD risk factors. Method: CKD Health Evaluation Risk Information Sharing (CHERISH), a demonstration project of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, hosted screenings at 2 community locations in each of 4 states. People with diabetes, hypertension, or aged ≥50 years were eligible to participate. In addition to CKD, screening included testing and measures of hemoglobin A1C, blood pressure, and lipids. ­Results: In this targeted population, among 894 people screened, CKD prevalence was 34%. Of participants with diabetes, 61% had A1C < 7%; of those with hypertension, 23% had blood pressure < 130/80 mm Hg; and of those with high cholesterol, 22% had low-density lipoprotein < 100 mg/dL. Conclusions: Using targeted selection criteria and simple clinical measures, CHERISH successfully identified a population with a high CKD prevalence and with poor control of CKD risk factors. CHERISH may prove helpful to state and local programs in implementing CKD detection programs in their communities.

Stroke Prevalence

Background: Stroke is a major chronic disease and a common cause of adult disability and mortality. Although there are many known risk factors for stroke, lower income is not one that is often discussed. Aims: To determine the unadjusted and adjusted association of income distribution on the prevalence of stroke in Saskatchewan, Canada. Methods: Information was collected from the Canadian Community Health Survey conducted by Statistics Canada for 2000–2008. In total, 178 variables were analysed for their association with stroke. Results: Prior to statistical adjustment, stroke was seven times more common for lower income residents than higher income residents. After statistical adjustment, only four covariates were independently associated with stroke prevalence, including having high blood pressure (odds ratio (OR) = 2.62; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 2.12–3.24), having a household income below CAD$30,000 per year (OR = 2.49; 95% CI = 1.88–3.29), being a daily smoker (OR = 1.36; 95% CI = 1.16–1.58) and being physically inactive (OR = 1.27; 95% CI = 1.13–1.43). After statistical adjustment, there were five covariates independently associated with high blood pressure prevalence, including having a household income below CAD$30,000 per year (OR = 1.52; 95% CI = 1.41–1.63). After statistical adjustment, there were five covariates independently associated with daily smoking prevalence, including having a household income below CAD$30,000 per year (OR = 1.29; 95% CI = 1.25–1.33). Conclusions: Knowledge of disparities in the prevalence, severity, disability and mortality of stroke is critically important to medical and public health professionals. Our study found that income distribution was strongly associated with stroke, its main disease intermediary – high blood pressure – and its main risk factor – smoking. As such, income is an important variable worthy of public debate as a modifiable risk factor for stroke.

DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/1980-0037.2016v18n6p678 The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of physical activity (PA) and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) levels on the prevalence of overweight and high blood pressure levels in adolescents. In this observational, cross-sectional study, 614 boys aged 10-14 years were assessed for height, body mass, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC) and blood pressure (BP). CRF was assessed using a run test (Léger Test) and subjects were then grouped according to their CRF level. PA level was assessed through a questionnaire (The Three Day Physical Activity Recall) and classified into two groups, namely > 300 minutes of PA/week and < 300 minutes of PA/week. Maturational stage was evaluated according to the development of pubic hair (self-assessment) as proposed by Tanner. We used statistical descriptive analysis, univariate and multivariate analyses in the total participants and subjects were divided by age. Fifty percent of the sample performed < 300 minutes of PA/week and 67.6% had unsatisfactory CRF levels. There was a higher prevalence of unsatisfactory CRF levels among subjects with altered BMI (overweight), WC (abdominal obesity) or BP (high blood pressure) for all age groups. PA history, however, did not show any significance. A total of 31% of participants were overweight, 24.8% had abdominal obesity and 15.4% had increased BP. Unsatisfactory CRF levels were found to be a better predictor for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases (CV) risk factors than PA history, regardless of age group.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a silent epidemic. The true prevalence of CKD with in a population are very difficult to estimate, since early to moderate CKD were usually asymptomatic. ESRD in the consequence of CKD is one of the most expensive diseases to treat.Only way is to prevent it and Hence this was conducted to estimate the prevalence of CKD and its associated risk factors among adults in selected slums of Chennai.Methods: This is a cross sectional study done from May 2013 to June 2014 in selected slums of Chennai. The study population includes adult males and females. Multi stage sampling method used. Sample size covered was 400. A semi structured questionnaire used as tool. Based on the serum creatinine eGFR calculated using modified MDRD study equation and CKD prevalence was identified. The data was entered in MS excel and analyzed using SPSS version 21.Results: Total of 400 participants involved. Females were predominant in the study. Among them, 67 (16.8%) were diagnosed as CKD patients and Stage 1, 4.0% had stage 2, 3.6% had stage 3, 1.3% had stage 4 and 0.5% had stage 5 at the time of diagnosis.Conclusions: This study revealed prevalence of CKD among slum population was 16.8%. This study showed that old age, uncontrolled hypertension, uneducated, Diabetes with poor control, overuse of analgesics, H/o smoking, obesity, alcoholism, passive smoking, family H/o CKD and proteinuria were significant risk factor for CKD among study subjects. Slum population with risk factors should be regularly screened for CKD.

Abstract Background and Aims Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a global health problem with disproportionate burden in low- and middle-income countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. Despite these disparities, little is known of the prevalence and risk factors of CKD in the Caribbean. We sought to determine prevalence of CKD among patients attending ambulatory centres in Montserrat, an island that to date, has no facilities for renal replacement therapy. Method A cross-sectional observational study of Participants were individuals aged ≥18 years was performed. Random cluster sampling of at least 500 participants who attended clinic from January 1 to July 1, 2020 across all primary health care facilities on island was performed. Patients without lab values for creatinine were excluded. The main outcome measures was estimated CKD prevalence (as defined based on KDIGO 2012 guidelines of eGFR &lt; 60mL/min/1.73m2 using creatinine based CKD-EPI for blacks; and estimated prevalence of CKD risk factors (Self-reported diabetes or hypertension and obesity, BMI&gt; 30kg/m2). Multivariate Logistic regression was used to determine independent predictors of CKD. Results Three hundred and fifty-five participants (n = 355) were selected for participation. Participants’ mean age was 63 ± 17 years, with 60% (n=213) being female. 38% (n=135) had self-reported diabetes and 58% (n=201) had hypertension; and 44% were obese. Mean± SD estimated GFR was 81 ± 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 . One quarter of the participants (25%) had an eGFR &lt;60 ml/min/1.73 m2, indicating CKD. Age [95% CI, OR 1.03 (1.01–1.07)], Self-reported hypertension [95% CI, OR 2.09, (1.13–3.90)] and female gender [95% CI ,OR 0.20 (0.10, 0.39)] were independent predictors of reduced eGFR. Conclusion CKD and its risk factors were prevalent among adults in Montserrat. Consideration must be made for infrastructural and/or policy changes to be mandated, to slow the progression of CKD. Primary prevention initiatives can be implemented to reduce the associated morbidity, mortality and cost associated with CKD. There is room for further longitudinal studies to identify etiology, as well as factors affecting CKD progression. This study will also propel creation of the Montserrat arm of the Caribbean Renal Registry, to allow for future follow up of long-term effects, as well as ascertain risk factors for CKD progression.

Abstract Background and Aims Risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD) such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2), high blood pressure (HBP) and obesity are strongly related to negative lifestyle and nutritional habits. The aim of this study was to estimate the proportion of patients with and without risk factors for CKD who meet recommendations for food consumption. Method Cross-sectional study. A qualitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was applied. Consumption of each food group was classified as adequate or inadequate based on dietary guidelines (DASH and ENSANUT Mexican Guidelines). Sociodemographic, biochemical and clinical variables were measured. DM2, HBP and obesity were defined as risk factors. Results 744 adults were evaluated, age 51±16 y, 68% women, 59% without risk factors, 7% DM2, 17% HBP, 8% DM2+HBP, and 18% obesity. Glomerular filtration rate was 99 (89-100) mL/min/1.73m2. Differences in FFQ between groups were found in relation to consumption of legumes, fast food, sugar, sweets and desserts (p&lt;0.05). Figure A shows the frequency of consumption of healthy and B, unhealthy foods. Conclusion In general, subjects in this sample had negative dietary habits, with &lt;50% consuming healthy food and &gt;50% consuming unhealthy food. Subjects without risk factors for CKD displayed a similar pattern of food consumption than those with risk factors, with only a significantly lower legumes intake than patients with HBP, and higher intake of sweets and desserts, sugar, and fast food compared to patients with DM2+HBP. It is necessary to implement strategies to prevent the long-term development of CKD in groups with poor adherence to healthy food consumption recommendations.
