| الوصف: | Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a significant health challenge among patients, contributing to substantial morbidity and mortality outcomes. However, there remains a paucity of data within the medical literature on the Roma population, one of the most significant minority groups globally, with studies indicating that these individuals are disproportionately affected by CKD compared to the general population, with higher prevalence rates. Materials and methods We conducted an observational, cross-sectional study from October 2022 to March 2024, evaluating 735 adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, of which 402 were Roma, aged 18 to 89 years, following the hospital's standard protocols for diabetes management, at the "Nicolae Malaxa" Clinical Hospital in Bucharest, Romania, a tertiary care center for diabetes. Results The prevalence of CKD was higher among the Roma patients, reaching 56.50% (n=203), in comparison with the Caucasian group (43.50%, n=156), however, with a lower mean age (55.53±10.56 years versus 63.32±10.04 years). Roma patients with CKD had a higher prevalence of cardiovascular disease compared to Caucasians, including myocardial infarction, stroke, stable angina, and heart failure. Cardiovascular risk factors, such as hypertension, obesity, and dyslipidemia, in patients with CKD, were also more prevalent among the Roma population. Taking into consideration the natural progression of CKD, the anthropometric measurements and laboratory parameters stratified by ethnicity revealed that Roma patients in the very high risk of CKD progression category had a lower mean age, and a lower median duration of diabetes (56.37±10.79 versus 59.92±7.48 years, and 4.00±2.00 versus 10.00±10.30 years, respectively), as well as a more elevated mean waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), total cholesterol (TC), and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-c) compared to Caucasians. Moreover, patients in the very high risk of CKD progression category among both groups showed the highest level of insulin resistance, measured by the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index (mean value of 10.13±0.60 among the Roma patients, and 10.09±0.82 among Caucasians). Among the study group, weight, WC, BMI, and A Body Shape Index (ABSI) were associated with a very high risk of progression of CKD. In Caucasian patients, it was demonstrated that weight, WC, BMI, ABSI, and triglycerides (TG) have contributed to the very high risk of progression of CKD, while among the Roma patients, no association was found. Conclusion In conclusion, our findings suggested a high prevalence of CKD among both groups. There is still a need for further investigation of additional risk factors, such as genetics, limited access to health education, and appropriate treatments that could synergistically accelerate the progression of CKD among Roma patients. |
