Relationships between blood concentrations of cadmium, lead, mercury, selenium, and manganese and the risk of chronic kidney disease: a cross-sectional study based on NHANES 2011-2018.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Currently, knowledge on relationships between blood concentrations of cadmium, lead, mercury, selenium, and manganese and the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is lacking. The aim of the study was to ex-plore the relationships between blood concentrations of heavy metals and the occurrence of CKD.

Material and methods

Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2018 were used to investigate the relationships between blood concentrations of mercury, lead, cadmium, selenium, and manganese and the occurrence of CKD using a weighted logistic recession analysis. Restrictive cubic spline analysis was applied to assess the dose-response relationship. The sample population was divided into four groups based on the quartiles of heavy m
