Ouick weight loss linked to lowered CKD risk among men with NAFLD: Study
CHINA: According to a study published in the journal Obesity, patients with obesity and high blood pressure may experience a lower risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD) with a short-term weight loss of at least 7% of body weight.
According to reports, 20–30% of adults have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which is often associated with other metabolic conditions. NAFLD has been associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD), which has a high incidence rate, high rates of morbidity and mortality, and significant medical expenses. Some metabolic risk factors that are also metabolic comorbidities of NAFLD are linked to CKD.
The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationship between obesity and chronic kidney disease (CKD) following the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
The link between obesity and chronic kidney disease (CKD) after the emergence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was investigated in this prospective cohort research of 10,311 adult Chinese men. In order to examine advanced CKD risk in NAFLD with various baselines or trajectories in obesity measurements, the Fine-Gray model was used.
