Development and validation of a risk prediction model for chronic kidney disease among adult hypertensive patients having follow-up at University of Gondar Comprehensive Specialised Hospital, Ethiopia: a retrospective cohort study
The nomogram demonstrated excellent discrimination and calibration in identifying hypertensive patients at high risk of CKD. This predictive model offers clinicians a valuable tool for early identification of high-risk individuals, enabling timely interventions, personalised counselling and optimised management through close monitoring to prevent disease progression.
