For non-diabetic CKD, fluid overload was associated with being female (β = –2.87, P = 0.003), heart disease (β = 2.69, P = 0.04), high baPWV (β = 0.27, P = 0.04), low hemoglobin (β = –1.10, P<0.001), and low serum albumin (β = –5.21, P<0.001) in multivariate analysis. The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is Hypervolemia.
