3 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The genetic architecture of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is complex, including monogenic and polygenic contributions. CKD progression to kidney failure is influenced by factors including male sex, baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), hypertension, diabetes, proteinuria, and the underlying kidney disease. These traits all have strong genetic components, which can be partially...
