Arterial stiffening in children with early chronic kidney disease is associated with blood pressure but not decline in kidney function: a longitudinal study from the HOT-KID cohort
These results indicate that there is no demonstrable difference in arterial stiffness between children with early CKD and those without. Renal function in early CKD does not appear to affect arterial stiffening, independent of the BP. The strong association between arterial stiffening and MAP suggests a need for careful BP control in children with CKD.
