Association between prehypertension and chronic kidney disease in the Japanese general population  Yuichiro Yano, Shouichi Fujimoto, Yuji Sato, Tsuneo Konta, Kunitoshi Iseki, Toshiki Moriyama, Kunihiro Yamagata, Kazuhiko Tsuruya, Hideaki Yoshida, Koichi Asahi, Issei Kurahashi, Yasuo Ohashi, Tsuyoshi Watanabe  Kidney International  Volume 81, Issue 3, Pages (February 2012) DOI: /ki Copyright © 2012 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Prevalence of chronic kidney disease according to the blood pressure (BP) classification in women (white bar) and men (black bar). The gender difference in the prevalence of chronic kidney disease increased in accordance with the severity of BP classification. Chronic kidney disease was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)<60ml/min per 1.73m2 and/or the presence of proteinuria (≥1+).

3 Figure 2 Logistic regression analysis of chronic kidney disease risk among subjects without hypertension. The odds ratio (95% confidence interval) of chronic kidney disease risk in subjects with or without obesity and/or prehypertension with high-normal blood pressure (BP) is shown in men (a) and women (b). The analysis was adjusted for age, current smoking, and daily drinking. Chronic kidney disease was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)<60ml/min per 1.73m2 and/or the presence of proteinuria (≥1+). *P<0.001 versus group (1) and †P<0.001 versus group (3).
