Popis: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the leading causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD). We analyzed the prevalence of CKD in the population with diabetes in Extremadura (Spain). retrospective observational study was carried in the diabetic population attended in the Extremadura Health System in 2012–2014. A total of 38,253 patients, ≥18 years old were included. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the CKD Epidemiology Collaboration equation. CKD was defined as follow: an eGFR <
60 mL/min/1.73 m2 in a time period ≥ of three months or the presence of renal damage, with or without reduced eGFR, if the urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) was ≥30 mg/g, also in a time period ≥ of three months. The prevalence rate of CKD was 25.3% (27.6% in women
23.0% in men) and increases with age (34.0% in ≥65 years-olds). 24.9% of patients with CKD were in the very-high risk category for cardiovascular events (6.3% of the diabetic population). If CKD were diagnosed without requiring sustained eGFR <
60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and/or sustained UACR ≥30 mg/g (as it is frequently found in the literature) this would overestimate the prevalence of CKD by 23%.
