Getting to know the enemy better—the global burden of chronic kidney disease

A good understanding of disease burden is the first step in formulating a response to it. Analysis of GBD 2016 dataset shows 87% rise in the global burden of CKD and a doubling of CKD deaths between 1990 and 2016. Countries with lower level of socio-economic development and poorer access to quality...

description A good understanding of disease burden is the first step in formulating a response to it. Analysis of GBD 2016 dataset shows 87% rise in the global burden of CKD and a doubling of CKD deaths between 1990 and 2016. Countries with lower level of socio-economic development and poorer access to quality healthcare experience a higher CKD burden. Reduction in age-standardized mortality and global DALYs over time indicate progress, but deviations from this trend in some geographies present a call to action.
