Key result
Glomerular disease was associated with 1.96 times higher odds of having a greater number of cardiovascular risk factors compared to nonglomerular disease in children with mild to moderate chronic kidney disease.

May prompt earlier CV risk screening in pediatric glomerular CKD; hypothesis-generating for targeted interventions.
Cross-Sectional (n=250)
Yes
Odds Ratio: 1.96 (95% CI 1.04–3.72)
Children with mild to moderate chronic kidney disease, particularly those with glomerular disease, have a high prevalence of multiple concurrent cardiovascular risk factors.
Wilson et al. (2011) conducted a cross-sectional in Chronic Kidney Disease (n=250). Glomerular etiology of CKD vs. Nonglomerular etiology of CKD was evaluated on Having a greater number of cardiovascular risk factors (OR 1.96, 95% CI 1.04-3.72). Glomerular disease was associated with 1.96 times higher odds of having a greater number of cardiovascular risk factors compared to nonglomerular disease in children with mild to moderate chronic kidney disease.
