چکیده

Data suggest increased rates of chronic kidney disease (ckd) in those with undiagnosed hypertension (htn). our study aimed to determine the prevalence of ckd in undiagnosed hypertensives in a previously unreported subgroup of individuals of south asian ethnicity. we analysed data from subjects in the addition-leicester study, a uk based multiethnic, community diabetes screening study. standard definitions included: htn—mean recorded bp of ⩾140/90 mm hg, ckd stage 3 and above—estimated glomerular filtration rate (egfr) <60 ml min−1 per 1.73 m2 and microalbuminuria as albumin creatinine ratio ⩾3 mg mmol−1. logistic regression was performed with age, gender and body mass index (kg m−2) as co-variates. 6082 individuals (52.5% female, mean age, 57.2 years; white european, 77.8% and south asian, 22.0%), 31.1% had undiagnosed htn. overall, individuals with undiagnosed htn compared with normotensives had an odds ratio for microalbuminuria of 2.24 (95% confidence interval (ci): 1.72–2.94). for south asians, the odds ratio was 3.81. (95% ci: 2.24–6.47) for microalbuminuria with a trend towards an egfr<60 ml min−1 per 1.73 m2. future studies should consider intensified screening for htn to refine the population suitable for ckd screening, particularly in the south asian ethnic group.
