The normal range of GFR, adjusted for body surface area, is 100–130 average 125 mL/min/1.73m 2 in men and 90–120 ml/min/1.73m 2 in women younger than the age of 40. In children, GFR measured by inulin clearance is 110 mL/min/1.73 m 2 until 2 years of age in both sexes, and then it progressively decreases.

[1] [10] In Canada, the lifetime risk of kidney failure or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) was estimated to be 2.66% for men and 1.76% for women. [11] Acute failure is often reversible while chronic failure often is not. [6] With appropriate treatment many with chronic disease can continue working. [2]
>20:1 >110:1 Prerenal (before the kidney) BUN reabsorption is increased. BUN is disproportionately elevated relative to creatinine in serum. This may be indicative of hypoperfusion of the kidneys due to heart failure or dehydration. [4] Gastrointestinal bleeding or increased dietary protein can also increase the ratio.

Out of the 1,374,392 female deaths reported in the US in 2017, kidney disease was listed as the cause of death for 24,889 women and was reported as the 9th overall cause of death for women in 2017. [45] Out of the 1,439,111 male deaths reported in the US in 2017, kidney disease was not listed in the top 10 causes of death. [45]
As of 2020 a rapidly progressive chronic kidney disease, unexplained by diabetes and hypertension, had increased dramatically in prevalence over a few decades in several regions in Central America and Mexico, a CKDu referred to as the Mesoamerican nephropathy (MeN). It was estimated in 2013 that at least 20,000 men had died prematurely, some in ...
There are also differences in epidemiology between the sexes, the disease is more common in men than in women by a ratio of 2 to 1. [ 62 ] The epidemiological data also reveals information regarding the most common way that symptoms develop in people with nephrotic syndrome: [ 62 ] spontaneous remission occurs in up to 20% or 30% of cases ...
Diabetic nephropathy, also known as diabetic kidney disease, [5] is the chronic loss of kidney function occurring in those with diabetes mellitus.Diabetic nephropathy is the leading causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) globally.
