Disentangling shared genetic etiologies for kidney function and cardiovascular diseases
2024-07-27
Abstract excerpt
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide, with chronic kidney disease (CKD) identified as a significant risk factor. CKD is primarily monitored through the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), calculated using the CKD-EPI equation. Although epidemiological and clinical studies have consistently demonstrated strong associations between eGFR and CVDs, the genetic underpinnings...
