| Description: |
Background. Using the Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA), we evaluated the prevalence and distribution of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and its determinants in order to identify risk groups for population health planning in Ireland. Methods. Data were analysed from Wave 1 (2009–2011) of the TILDA, a national cohort of participants aged 50+ years who had both plasma creatinine and cystatin C measured at baseline. Kidney function was estimated using the 2012 and 2021 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equations. CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate |
