This research investigates the relationship between renal dysfunction and cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) risk.
Epidemiological study based on data from the UK Biobank
Prospective cohort design focusing on adult participants
Assessment of multidimensional renal dysfunction biomarkers
Finds an independent association between renal dysfunction and increased risk of CSVD
Suggests that renal dysfunction biomarkers could help identify individuals at risk in the adult population.
Abstract
Our large-scale epidemiological study provides evidence that multidimensional renal dysfunction biomarkers are independently associated with CSVD risk in adults.
