Summary

Chronic kidney disease (CKD), also known as chronic renal disease, is a condition characterized by a gradual loss of kidney function over time. It is a common condition often associated with getting older, but it can affect anyone [1]. The causes are manifold, including kidney diseases, diabetic nephropathy and diabetes, hypertension, immunopathologies like systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with and without anti-phospholipid antibodies and kidney transplantation (uncomplicated, complicated).
