Overview

Cross-sectional analysis reveals high rates of iron deficiency anemia and its predictors in CKD patients, highlighting the importance of disease stage and age.

Key Points

  • Anemia affects 346 patients (76.7%) with prevalence increasing in advanced chronic kidney disease stages.
  • Absolute iron deficiency is found in 133 patients (29.5%), while 213 patients (47.2%) have functional iron deficiency.
  • Iron deficiency is significantly correlated with lower hemoglobin levels and altered serum ferritin in CKD stages.
  • Age under 60 years and CKD stage 5 are independent predictors of absolute iron deficiency among patients.
