Bidirectional association of sleep disorders with chronic kidney disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Published studies have suggested a link between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and sleep disorders, although the exact nature of this association has not been uniformly described. Clarifying this relationship may facilitate evidence-based interventions that address the interplay between these disease entities. Such interventions could prevent obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) from worsening CKD and improve the quality of life for CKD patients by reducing the risk of developing OSA.

Methods

Following a PROSPERO-registered protocol, three blinded reviewers conducted a systematic review of the Medline/PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Cumulative Ind
