This 6-year retrospective cohort study investigated the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) among Australian First Nations patients in remote Northern Territory. We found that younger patients (age less than 50 years) were at a higher risk of progression to kidney replacement therapy or death compared to older adults. The results indicate a need to target early CKD intervention efforts to younger patients at risk of rapid progression.
这项为期6年的回顾性队列研究调查了澳大利亚北领地偏远地区原住民患者慢性肾脏病(CKD)的进展情况。我们发现,与老年人相比,年轻患者(年龄小于50岁)进展至肾脏替代治疗或死亡的风险更高。结果表明,有必要针对有快速进展风险的年轻患者开展早期CKD干预工作。
