The prevalence of CKD among patients with hypertension was 28.5%, with target organ damage present in 70.8% of cases, and serum cystatin C strongly correlated with GFR (r = -0.866; p < 0.0001).

Why the study?

Essential hypertension is the leading cause of CKD worldwide, prompting this evaluation of the frequency and nature of kidney damage in hypertension.

Population

189 patients with stages I, II, and III hypertension aged 43 years and older

Comparison

Hypertension without signs of CKD vs hypertension complicated by CKD

Overview

May warrant CKD vigilance in hypertension; leaves open whether cystatin C refines risk stratification beyond creatinine.

Structured PICO

P
Population
189 patients (69 men and 120 women) with essential hypertension (stages I, II, and III) aged 43 years and older, average age 61.2 ± 8.7 years.
O
Outcome
Frequency and nature of kidney damage in hypertension, including prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) categories.surrogate

In patients with essential hypertension, chronic kidney disease is highly prevalent (28.5%), and serum cystatin C levels accurately reflect kidney filtration function.
