In non-dialysis chronic kidney disease patients, resistant hypertension was significantly associated with older age, longer duration of hypertension, diabetes mellitus (OR 1.67), and obesity (OR 1.84).

In non-dialysis CKD patients, resistant hypertension is significantly associated with older age, longer duration of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and obesity.
Effect estimate: OR 1.67 (95% CI 1.31-1.97)
Absolute Event Rate: 56.6% vs 36.2%
p-value: p=<0.05
Background: In Chronic Kidney disease (CKD), resistant hypertension (RH) is a common condition due to a combination of factors including sodium retention, increased activity of the renin-angiotensin system, and enhanced activity of the sympathetic nervous system. The aim of the study was to determine the causes of resistant hypertension in non-dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease Patients. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in the department of Nephrology 10 (1): 19-25
Haque et al. (Mon,) conducted a cross-sectional in Non-dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease with Hypertension (n=277). Resistant Hypertension vs. Non-resistant Hypertension was evaluated on Presence of diabetes mellitus (OR 1.67, 95% CI 1.31-1.97, p=<0.05). In non-dialysis chronic kidney disease patients, resistant hypertension was significantly associated with older age, longer duration of hypertension, diabetes mellitus (OR 1.67), and obesity (OR 1.84).
