Rationale & Objective: The objective of the study was to estimate the prevalence of hypertension in patients with proteinuric kidney disease and evaluate blood pressure (BP) control. Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Setting & Participants: Data from adults and children with proteinuric kidney disease enrolled in the multicenter Kidney Research Network Registry were used for this study. Exposure: Proteinuric kidney disease. Outcomes: Hypertension and BP control. Analytical Approach: Patients with white-coat hypertension were excluded. Patients were censored at end-stage kidney disease onset. Patients were defined as hypertensive either by hypertension diagnosis code, having 2 or more encounters with elevated BPs, or treatment with antihypertensive therapy excluding renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade. Elevated BP was defined as greater than 95th percentile for children and >140/90 mm Hg in adults. Sustained BP control was defined as 2 or more consecutive encounters with BPs lower than 95th percentile for children and |
