Chronic Episodic Hypotension as a Cause of Chronic Kidney Disease. [PDF]

open access: yesCase Rep Med
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health concern characterized by the gradual loss of renal function as seen by the decline of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). While hypertension is a well‐documented risk factor for CKD progression, the influence of hypotension on this condition remains less explored.
