Funded Activity Summary

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common and people with CKD have high rates or cardiovascular disease and death. Proteinuria (protein in the urine) is an early sign of CKD and studies have shown that even in people with normal kidney function, it is associated with poor outcomes. However, the effect of change in proteinuria has not been well studied. We aim to determine the effects of proteinuria change on CKD progression and other important outcomes to improve the early detection of CKD.
