Abstract

The chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant aspect of chronic non-communicable diseases, which have reached pandemic levels and are leading causes of morbidity and mortality globally. This systematic review evaluates the burden of chronic kidney disease in the general population of Dhaka city, focusing on lifestyle risk factors. Conducted over six months from November 2019 to June 2020, the study involved participants aged 20 to 70 from various backgrounds. Data was collected through face-to-face interviews conducted in Bengali; alongside anthropometric measurements taken by the researchers. Additionally, the latest blood pressure and glucose levels, as well as lipid profiles and biochemical test results, were obtained from hospital records. The connection between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and additional risk factors, including obesity, tobacco use, diabetes, and hypertension, is highly significant. The most common risk factors for CKD, specifically diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension (HTN), are notably elevated and are clearly contributing to the increasing prevalence of chronic kidney disease. Among the respondents, 85.2% people where hypertensive 12.1% people were in normal condition 18.38% people were under peritoneal dialysis and 11.2% people were under hemodialysis. Among the respondents, 78.2% of people had their creatinine, and albuminuria high level. It was evidenced that for those with established renal disease, proteinuria could be an important predictor of the risk of progression and mortality, these all indicate a close relationship with chronic kidney disease.  Early identification of CKD risk factors, prompt referrals to kidney specialists, effective management of high blood pressure, diabetes, glomerulonephritis, and other associated risks, along with lifestyle modifications particularly reducing salt intake, increasing physical activity, and avoiding tobacco can help slow the advancement of kidney disease to more severe stages.
