Abstract

OBJECTIVE: : Evidence on the prognostic value of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) slope in Asian individuals with hypertension is limited. We examined associations of eGFR slope with cardiovascular events, kidney events, and all-cause mortality in a Japanese cohort. METHODS: : We studied 1814 adults with hypertension from the Fukushima Cohort Study. eGFR slope over 1-2 years was classified as
