BMC Nephrology (2020) 21:344 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12882-020-01966-8 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Prevalence of chronic kidney disease and its associated factors in Malaysia; findings from a nationwide population-based cross- sectional study Thamil Arasu Saminathan1* , Lai Seong Hooi2, Muhammad Fadhli Mohd Yusoff1, Loke Meng Ong3, Sunita Bavanandan4, Wan Shakira Rodzlan Hasani1, Esther Zhao Zhi Tan5, Irene Wong6, Halizah Mat Rifin1, Tania Gayle Robert1, Hasimah Ismail1, Norazizah Ibrahim Wong1, Ghazali Ahmad4, Rashidah Ambak1, Fatimah Othman1, Hamizatul Akmal Abd Hamid1 and Tahir Aris1 Abstract Background: The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Malaysia was 9.07% in 2011. We aim to determine the current CKD prevalence in Malaysia and its associated risk factors. Methods: A population-based study was conducted on a total of 890 respondents who were representative of the adult population in Malaysia, i.e., aged ≥18 years old. Respondents were randomly selected using a stratified cluster method. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was estimated from calibrated serum creatinine using the CKD-EPI equation. CKD was defined as eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73m2 or the presence of persistent albuminuria if eGFR ≥60 ml/min/1.73m2. Results: Our study shows that the prevalence of CKD in Malaysia was 15.48% (95% CI: 12.30, 19.31) in 2018, an increase compared to the year 2011 when the prevalence of CKD was 9.07%. An estimated 3.85% had stage 1 CKD, 4.82% had stage 2 CKD, and 6.48% had stage 3 CKD, while 0.33% had stage 4–5 CKD.
