Medical study: Early examination and diet is a mandatory prescription to prevent kidney disease

A recent medical study revealed a close connection between early examination and a healthy diet in the prevention of chronic kidney disease (CKD), noting that most patients suffer from the disease without showing clear symptoms in its early stages. The results of the study were presented at the European Association for kidney disease, and researchers participated in it, within a global project known as Impact CKD, and the study showed that the diagnosis was Early can reduce the development of the disease by up to 55%, and reduce public death rates by 7.3%.

The study, a large part of which was dedicated to analyzing the spread of the disease in Australia, showed that more than 75% of Australians are at risk of infection, while one in ten adults actually suffer from the disease without their knowledge. Chronic kidney disease is classified as “silent diseases”, as its symptoms may only appear after the patient loses a large percentage of kidney function.

Impact CKD data simulation indicates that the adoption of national policies for early examination and preventive treatment in Australia leads to:

• Reducing heart disease by 48%,

• Reducing the need for dialysis sessions by about 400 thousand cases in 25 years,

• Maintaining 200,000 workers in the labor market full time,

• Increasing the net tax revenue by about $ 1.6 billion.

The study also confirmed that kidney disease is witnessing a silent health crisis in Australia, in light of the ignorance of millions of people in their injury, which requires urgent movement; To enhance awareness, expand early examination programs, and enable doctors to provide accurate food guidelines for the most vulnerable groups, especially those with diabetes and high blood pressure.
