How often CKD afflicts women of reproductive age is not well known. This study aimed to evaluate the burden of CKD and associated birth rates in an entire region.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This was a retrospective cohort study including women of childbearing age in Stockholm during 2006\u20132015. We estimated the prevalence of \u201cprobable CKD\u201d by the presence of an ICD-10 diagnosis of CKD, a single estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)\u2009&amp;lt;\u200960\u00a0mL\/min\/1.73\u00a0m2 or history of maintenance dialysis. By linkage with the Swedish Medical Birth Register we identified births during the subsequent three years from study inclusion and evaluated birth rates.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We identified 817,730 women in our region, of whom 55% had at least one creatinine measurement. A total of 3938 women were identified as having probable CKD, providing an age-averaged CKD prevalence of 0.50%. Women with probable CKD showed a lower birth rate 3 years after the index date (35.7 children per 1000 person years) than the remaining women free from CKD (46.5 children per 1000 person years).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>As many as 0.50% of individuals in this cohort had probable CKD, defined on the basis of at least one\u00a0eGFR&amp;lt;60 ml\/min1.73 m2 test result, dialysis treatment (i.e. CKD stages 3\u20135) or an\u00a0ICD-10 diagnosis of CKD. This prevalence is\u00a0lower than previous estimates. Women with probable CKD, according to a study\u00a0mainly capturing CKD 3\u20135, had a lower birth rate than those without CKD, illustrating the challenges of this population to successfully conceive.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Graphical Abstract<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s40620-022-01546-z","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,18]],"date-time":"2023-01-18T09:03:07Z","timestamp":1674032587000},"page":"1341-1347","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Prevalence of chronic kidney disease in women of reproductive age and observed birth rates"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"36","author":[{"given":"Willemijn A.
