Abstract: The global burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is rapidly increasing with a projection of becoming the 5th most common cause of years of life lost globally by 2040. CKD is a major cause of catastrophic health expenditure. The costs of dialysis and transplantation consume up to 3% of the annual healthcare budget in high-income countries. However, the onset and progression of CKD is often preventable. In 2020, the World Kidney Day campaign highlights the importance of preventive interventionsbe it primary, se… Show more

“…Knowledge about the underlying disease that led to renal failure and transplantation is essential for the care of patients by the multidisciplinary team because there are diseases that require more specific immunological monitoring and may require changes in the immunosuppressive regimen. 33 In a study by Moura et al, the main underlying disease for kidney failure was also of indeterminate cause. 34 reasons for transplantation, as found by Wang et al, during the pharmacotherapeutic follow-up of kidney transplant patients.…”

The concept of health equity advances the notion that most differences in health status and outcomes between groups are not the result of biological differences, rather they result from structural processes that create differences in access to health, including the entire spectrum of structural racism to overt racial and ethnic discriminations [29].…”

“…The global incidence and prevalence of kidney disease are increasing steadily, imposing a significant burden and becoming the eighth-leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Kidney disease is a global public health concern; it is projected to become the 5th most common cause of mortality globally by 2040 [ 1 , 2 ]. Acute and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are the two main types of kidney disease, and they are associated with substantial economic burden and deficits in quality of life.…”
