Among women, CKD is less likely to be diagnosed and adequately managed in comparison with men with CKD, an observational cohort study indicates.
Besides being less likely to be diagnosed, women were also 54% less likely than men to visit a nephrologist over the ensuing 18 months, the authors note . The findings were only slightly attenuated after multivariable adjustments.
Fewer women received either an RAS inhibitor or a statin than men. The differences in the use of both drugs persisted over time."These differences were...observed among high-risk groups, among people with evidence-based indications for medications and among people with confirmed CKD at re-testing," the investigators observe.
