The Medical Birth Registry of Norway, which comprises data on all births in Norway since 1967, and the Norwegian Renal Registry, which comprises data on all patients who have developed ESRD in Norway since 1980, were used to examine whether birth-related variables were associated with risk for ES...

متن کاملImpact of birth weight on familial aggregation of end-stage renal disease.
BACKGROUND Birth weight (BW) and family history (FH) of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have been shown to have an independent association with development of subsequent ESRD. This study was undertaken to determine the effects of BW (low BW suggesting a congenital reduction in functional nephron number) on the observed familial aggregation of ESRD. METHODS Cases were identified from the ESRD N...
متن کاملHepatitis C Virus Infection Increases Risk of Developing End-Stage Renal Disease Using Competing Risk Analysis

The association of HCV and risk of developing end-stage renal disease (ESRD) has not been analyzed with competing risk model. METHOD We enrolled a prospective cohort of 4,185 patients (mean age, 62 years; 41% female) registered in the CKD integrated care progra...
