Association of estimated glomerular filtration rate with stroke risk in middle-aged and older Chinese adults: an integrated analysis of national and hospital cohorts

JMJun MaoXWX WangXZXi Zhang

Key Points

  • This research aims to investigate the relationship between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and stroke risk among middle-aged and older Chinese adults.
  • Conducted an integrated analysis using national and hospital cohorts.
  • Analyzed data on eGFR levels and corresponding stroke risk in the target population.
  • Showed a significant graded relationship between lower eGFR and increased stroke risk.
  • Indicated that lower eGFR levels are associated with higher incidence rates of stroke events.

Abstract

Background: Stroke is a leading cause of death in China. While chronic kidney disease is a known stroke risk factor, quantitative evidence on the graded relationship between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and stroke risk in the Chinese population remains limited.
