Why the study?
Are elevated postprandial sugar and systolic blood pressure associated with the severity of chronic kidney disease?
Population
317 individuals from North India, comprising 162 patients diagnosed with chronic kidney disease and 155…
Design
Case-control
Key result
Prolonged elevated postprandial blood sugar was strongly associated with increased odds of mild, moderate, and severe chronic kidney disease (severe CKD OR 7.610; 95% CI 4.03-14.36; p=0.000).

May inform risk stratification in Indian CKD; leaves open causal roles and needs prospective validation before practice change.

Are elevated postprandial sugar and systolic blood pressure associated with the severity of chronic kidney disease?
Odds Ratio: 7.61 (95% CI 4.03–14.36)
p-value: p=0.000
Elevated postprandial blood sugar and systolic blood pressure are strong predictors of prevalent nephropathy and its severity in a North Indian population.
Chandra et al. (2013) conducted a case-control in Chronic kidney disease (n=317). Prolonged elevated postprandial blood sugar vs. Normal postprandial blood sugar was evaluated on Severe CKD (OR 7.610, 95% CI 4.03-14.36, p=0.000). Prolonged elevated postprandial blood sugar was strongly associated with increased odds of mild, moderate, and severe chronic kidney disease (severe CKD OR 7.610; 95% CI 4.03-14.36; p=0.000).
