May support renal monitoring in metabolic syndrome; leaves open whether interventions alter CKD progression.
Relative Risk: 2.5
Metabolic syndrome is strongly associated with a 2.5-fold increased risk of developing chronic kidney disease, highlighting the need for early renal monitoring in these patients.
Singh et al. (2013) conducted a review in Metabolic syndrome and chronic kidney disease. Metabolic syndrome vs. Healthy controls was evaluated on Development of chronic kidney disease (2.5-fold higher risk). Metabolic syndrome is associated with a 2.5-fold higher risk of developing chronic kidney disease and a two-fold increased risk of microalbuminuria.
