Abstract

This paper reports the results of physical examination data of a population aged 19 years and above in the Henan area. The prevalence of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in adults in a healthy population and associations with potential risk factors are described. There were 556 cases with albuminuria, a prevalence rate of 5.09% (95% CI: 3.19-6.88). The prevalence rate of males (5.87%) was higher than that of females (3.81%). There were 278 cases with eGFR <60 mL/min·(1.73 m 2 ) −1, suggesting a high rate of unreported CKD in this community.
