Homeless adults were younger, were disproportionately male and uninsured, and suffered from far higher rates of depression and substance abuse compared with adults with stable housing (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt;0.001 for all comparisons). Over a median follow-up of 2.8 years (interquartile range=1.4\u20136.1), homeless adults experienced significantly higher crude risk of ESRD or death (hazard ratio=1.82, 95% confidence interval=1.49\u20132.22) compared with housed adults. This elevated risk was attenuated but remained significantly higher (adjusted hazard ratio=1.28, 95% confidence interval=1.04\u20131.58) after controlling for differences in sociodemographics, comorbid conditions, and laboratory variables. Homeless adults were also far more likely to use acute care services (median [interquartile range] number of emergency department visits was 9 [4\u201320] versus 1 [0\u20134],\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt;0.001) than housed counterparts.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Homeless adults with CKD suffer from increased morbidity and mortality and use costly acute care services far more frequently than peers who are stably housed.
