Over the past 2 decades, cardiovascular (CV) disease has been recognized as one of the most important complications of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and one of the leading causes of death in children with advanced CKD and in young adults who developed CKD during childhood. CV abnormalities develop early and progress during the course of CKD in children. Characterization of the prevalence and evolution of CV disease risk factors in progressive CKD is one of the primary aims of the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children study. In this review, we summarize up-to-date findings from the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children study with a focus on traditional and CKD-related CV risk factors and early subclinical markers of cardiac and vascular structure and function. We also discuss the effect of CV risk factors on progression of CKD.

D051436 Renal Insufficiency, Chronic Conditions in which the KIDNEYS perform below the normal level for more than three months. Chronic kidney insufficiency is classified by five stages according to the decline in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE and the degree of kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA). The most severe form is the end-stage renal disease (CHRONIC KIDNEY FAILURE).
