Cardiovascular risk in individuals with kidney disease

The worldwide prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is estimated to exceed 700 million persons, with the incidence steadily increasing due to factors such as an aging population and the growing prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension. Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of illness and mortality in persons with nephropathy. Effectively treating nephropathy and cardiovascular risk in individuals with kidney disease is a major challenge in clinical practice. Every patient requires a comprehensive assessment and tailored therapy. In order to reduce the likelihood of cardiovascular events in patients with nephropathy, it is necessary to avoid and rapidly address cardiovascular risk factors. In order to enhance the overall well-being and longevity of individuals with kidney disease, it is essential to identify and address any cardiovascular issues.
