A progressive loss of kidney function over months to years, leading to accumulation of waste products in the blood.
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a progressive loss of kidney function over months to years, defined by structural or functional abnormalities of the kidney persisting for >3 months. CKD is classified into 5 stages based on glomerular filtration rate (GFR). It affects approximately 850 million people worldwide and is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), and premature death.
Hypertension (HTN) is a chronic medical condition characterized by persistently elevated arterial blood pressure. It is classified as primary (essential, 90-95% of cases) or secondary (5-10% due to identifiable causes). Hypertension is a major modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease, stroke, kidney disease, and premature death.
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by progressive insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency, resulting in chronic hyperglycemia. It accounts for 90-95% of all diabetes cases globally, affecting approximately 537 million adults worldwide (IDF Diabetes Atlas, 10th edition, 2021).
