“…This is especially true if the underlying illnesses are left untreated. Deteriorating kidney functions are most frequently caused by diabetes in Nigeria (Okaka et al, 2020;Ibitoba et al, 2022). Diabetic and hypertensive patients also have increased prevalence of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors, such as dyslipidemia, microalbuminuria, hyperuricemia, a propensity to clot, and left ventricular hypertrophy (Mantovani et al, 2020;Sanusi et al, 2020;Okonofua et al, 2021).…”

Hypertension as well as diabetes mellitus has been reported to be a major risk factor for deteriorating kidney functions. However, there is paucity of reports on renal functions in a co-existence of hypertension and diabetic condition, hence, this study evaluates renal functions in hypertensive and diabetic co-morbidity. Participants were categorised into healthy, hypertension, diabetes and hypertension with diabetes group. Blood pressure was measured as well as fasting blood glucose and blood samples were collected from each participant to assay renal function indices. The results showed that there was substantial uraemia as well as a significant reduction glomerular filtration rate in co-morbid hypertension and diabetic patients. Fasting blood glucose and mean arterial blood pressure were considerably elevated while creatinine concentration was not significantly altered in comorbid hypertension and diabetic patients. This study revealed that co-existence of hypertension and diabetes mellitus exacerbated renal dysfunction comparatively to hypertension and diabetes mellitus.

“…Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a non-communicable and irreversible damage to the renal function and structure, and a progressive decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) that is less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m 2 for over three months [1,2]. The prevalence of CKD across the globe has increased to approximately 13 % in the last two decades [2,3]. This might be due to an increase in the prevalence of CKD risks such as hypertension, diabetes and glomerulonephritis [3].…”

The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) has surged to approximately 13 % in the past two decades due to an increase in associated risk factors. Poorly managed CKD can progress to end-stage renal disease, necessitating renal replacement therapy, with hemodialysis being the most common form. This study examines a 5-year record of hemodialysis in a healthcare facility in southwest Nigeria. Study data were collected from dialysis register and case study of patients that were consecutively dialyzed at the dialysis centre of Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital between January 2017 and December 2021. Unstructured proforma was used to extract data for the study. There was a total of 152 patients and 1600 hemodialysis sessions between January 2017 and December 2021. More than a quarter of the patients were civil servants and there were more males than females (p = 0.3325). CKD was the major indication for hemodialysis with hypertension as its main cause while post-partum hemorrhage was the most common cause of acute kidney injury. Only 3.3 % of the patients had permanent access of arteriovenous fistula. Notably, 47.2 % of the patients were lost to follow-up, 29.8 % left to other centres by either referral or self-decision, while 18.6 % died of CKD-related complications. Nevertheless, 4.4 % patients were still dialyzing in the Centre as of December 2021. Comparatively fewer hemodialysis sessions occurred, yet they led to improved patient outcomes. Regular follow-ups and government subsidies are recommended to ease patient burdens.

Introduction Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing public health problem that is associated with enormous economic burden, reduced quality of life and untimely deaths predominantly in developing countries. Aims: The study determines the prevalence and risk factors for CKD among diabetes and hypertensive patients in a teaching hospital in Ekiti State. Methods Descriptive and cross-sectional research designs were employed using quantitative strategy. Two-hundred (200) participants who were purposely selected participated in the study. Socio-demographic data, awareness and risk factors for CKD were determined using a standardized questionnaire while CKD prevalence was investigated with biophysical measurements and laboratory investigations. Descriptive analyses were used to answer the research questions while inferential statistics were used to test hypotheses at a significant level of p < 0.05. Results Finding revealed that 50% and 57.1% of the diabetics and hypertensives were above 60 years, 36.7% of the diabetics has a comorbidity while only 2% and 3.1% of diabetics and hypertensives participants has a family history of CKD. The study revealed that the level of awareness of CKD by the respondents was inadequate. Major risk factors of CKD identified among the respondents were already diagnosed of diabetes and hypertension, age above 60 years (50% and 57.1%), herbal concoction (77.7% and 73.5%) and NSAID (74.5% and 78.6%). The prevalence of CKD for diabetics was 39.8% while 57.1% for hypertensives. There was a significant relationship between respondents’ level of education and awareness of CKD (X2 =44.20, p=<0.001). The prevalence of CKD among the studied population was high. Conclusion Efforts should be intensified by nurses and all other stakeholders on awareness and prevention programs for CKD. Furthermore, promotion of patients’ satisfaction with quality of health care services should be the goal to promote positive health outcomes.
