Longitudinal change in blood pressure and risk of end-stage renal disease in a community-based cohort in Okinawa

Background The appropriate blood pressure target to prevent end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is controversial. Methods We examined the association between systolic blood pressure (SBP) changes and ESRD incidence in 69,575 participants from the Okinawa general population aged ≥ 20 years who underwent h...

Description
Summary:Background The appropriate blood pressure target to prevent end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is controversial. Methods We examined the association between systolic blood pressure (SBP) changes and ESRD incidence in 69,575 participants from the Okinawa general population aged ≥ 20 years who underwent health check-ups in 1993 and more than once in 1994–1996. ESRD incidence was identified using dialysis registry until 2011. Cox proportional hazards model was used to estimate hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) with confounding factor adjustment. Results At baseline, 29.9%, 22.1%, 20.6%, and 27.5% of subjects had SBP
