International Network of Chronic Kidney Disease cohort studies (iNET-CKD): a global network of chronic kidney disease cohorts

Abstract: Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health burden, yet it is still underrepresented within public health agendas in many countries. Studies focusing on the natural history of CKD are challenging to design and conduct, because of the long time-course of disease progression, a wide variation in etiologies, and a large amount of clinical variability among individuals with CKD. With the difference in health-related behaviors, healthcare delivery, genetics, and environmental exposures, this variabi… Show more

“…In addition to these databases in the United States, other countries worldwide also have big data within nephrology for researchers, such as the National Kidney Disease Surveillance Program in Ireland [53], the surveillance project on CKD management in Canada [54], and the China Kidney Disease Network (CK-NET), a comprehensive CKD surveillance system for China [55]. Numerous networks of international collaboration, like the International Network of CKD cohorts [56], the Therapeutic Evaluation of Steroids in IgA Nephropathy Global study [57], and the Chronic Kidney Disease Prognosis Consortium [58] have grown immensely within the last few years. There are possible advantages of introducing a traditional data element that are linked to kidney infections, like escalating the overall power of the groups which are under-represented [59].…”

“…Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is on rise in both developed and developing nations with an estimated prevalence of 10% to 16% globally (Dienemann et al, 2016;WHO, 2015). In Vietnam, the incidence of CKD is increasing rapidly due to the growing burden of diabetes and hypertension (Hyodo et al, 2017).…”

“…The global prevalence of CKD in all adults is estimated at between 10% to 16% (Dienemann et al, 2016), with the majority of people in stages 3-5 (10.6%) (Hill et al, 2016). The estimated prevalence of CKD varies considerably and this may be due to whether the disease has been diagnosed and also the methods for collecting national data for reporting in registries.…”
