The diagnosis of CKD is based on the presence of either of two criteria persisting for three months or more: the measurement of renal function assessed using the updated race-free Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology (CKD-EPI) 2021 formula, indicating an eGFR below 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and/or albuminuria (urinary albumin/creatinine ratio) exceeding 30 mg/g [4]. Here, ALB is linked to chronic kidney disease.
