Global burden and trends of high BMI-attributable chronic kidney disease: a comprehensive analysis from 1990 to 2021 and projections to 2035.

ABSTRACT:

Background

High body mass index (BMI) is a major modifiable risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD), significantly contributing to its global burden. This study aimed to systematically evaluate the global burden of CKD attributable to high BMI from 1990 to 2021, identify demographic and regional variations, evaluate contributing risk factors, and project future trends through 2035.

Methods

The population-based analysis utilized data from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2021, encompassing 204 countries and territories across 21 GBD regions. Age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) and age-standardized disability-adjusted life years rate (ASDR) were assessed using percentage change (PC) and estimated annual percentage change (EAPC). Dec
