Genetic Variants Related to Increased CKD Progression-A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT: The incidence and prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) are increasing worldwide. CKD is associated with high morbidity, premature mortality, and high healthcare costs. Genetic variants may influence CKD development and progression. This study aimed to identify the associations between allelic variants and CKD progression. We performed a systematic literature review following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.
