Twelve March 2015 will mark the 10th anniversary of World Kidney Day (WKD), an initiative of the International Society of Nephrology and the International Federation of Kidney Foundations. Since its inception in 2006, WKD has become the most successful effort ever mounted to raise awareness among decision-makers and the general public about the importance of kidney disease. Each year WKD reminds us that kidney disease is common, harmful and treatable. The focus of WKD 2015 is on chronic kidney disease (CKD) in disadvantaged populations. This article reviews the key links between poverty and CKD and the consequent implications for the prevention of kidney disease and the care of kidney patients in these populations.
2015 年 3 月 12 日将是世界肾脏日(WKD)十周年纪念日,这是国际肾脏病学会和国际肾脏基金会的一项倡议。自 2006 年成立以来,WKD 已成为有史以来最成功的提高决策者和公众对肾脏疾病重要性的认识的举措。每年的 WKD 都提醒我们,肾脏疾病是常见的、有害的和可治疗的。WKD 2015 的重点是贫困人群中的慢性肾脏病(CKD)。本文回顾了贫困与 CKD 之间的关键联系,以及这些人群中预防肾脏疾病和肾脏患者护理的相应影响。
