Cardiovascular Impacts of Kidney Diseases
Cardiovascular disease death increases with chronic kidney disease. More than half of the deaths of people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are caused by coronary disease. Indeed, even a mild or early renal disorder can increase a man's risk of heart disease-related death and heart attacks. Patients on kidney dialysis who also have cardiovascular disease die 10 to 30 times more frequently than patients with cardiovascular disease in general. Major risk factors for heart disease and chronic kidney disease are diabetes and hypertension. Even when diabetes, high cholesterol, and hypertension are present concurrently, kidney disease (acute kidney disease or chronic kidney disease) can raise the risk of cardiovascular disease. Even before kidney disease progresses to the point where dialysis or transplantation are required, recent research demonstrates that renal diseases (also known as kidney diseases) cause heart disease.
