Age Differences in the Correlation Between the Cardiometabolic Index and Chronic Kidney Disease Risk in Adults With Hypertension.

ABSTRACT: Literature on the association between the cardiometabolic index (CMI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) risk is limited, especially in hypertensive populations. The objective of the present investigation was to assess the relationship between the CMI and CKD risk in a hypertensive population. The current cross-sectional study included a total of 13 717 individuals with hypertension. The calculation of the CMI was based on the waist-to-height ratio and the triglyceride-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio. The definition of CKD was based on an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m². The prevalence of CKD was found to be 4.24% in younger adults (aged < 65 years) and 14.93% in the elderly (aged ≥ 65 years). The results of the multivariate
