Key result
Chronic kidney disease was significantly associated with worse self-reported overall health (OR 1.65; 95% CI 1.21-2.24; p=0.001) in outpatients with coronary artery disease.
Why the study?
Does chronic kidney disease affect depression, stress, quality of life, and overall health in outpatients with coronary artery disease?

In patients with coronary artery disease, mild chronic kidney disease is associated with reduced self-assessed overall health but not with worse mental health outcomes.

Supports attention to perceived health in CAD patients with CKD; leaves open causality and mental health effects for prospective research.
Odden et al. (2005) conducted a cross-sectional in Coronary artery disease (n=967). Chronic kidney disease (CKD) vs. Without CKD was evaluated on Poor or fair overall health (OR 1.65, 95% CI 1.21-2.24, p=0.001). Chronic kidney disease was significantly associated with worse self-reported overall health (OR 1.65; 95% CI 1.21-2.24; p=0.001) in outpatients with coronary artery disease.
