Table 3:

Odds of congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract, glomerulonephritis and diabetes as the cause of end-stage renal disease in Aboriginal people compared with white people

Age group, yr OR (95% CI)*
Congenital renal disease Glomerulonephritis Diabetes
0 to < 22 0.56 (0.36–0.86) 2.18 (1.55–3.07)
22 to < 40 0.57 (0.26–1.24) 1.42 (1.03–1.95) 0.91 (0.65–1.29)
40 to < 60 0.27 (0.08–0.85) 0.51 (0.39–0.65) 4.66 (3.84–5.65)
≥ 60 0.53 (0.13–2.16) 0.46 (0.32–0.67) 6.17 (5.00–7.62)

Note: CI = confidence interval, OR = odds ratio.

*

OR > 1.00 indicates higher odds of disease in Aboriginal people, OR < 1.00 indicates higher odds of disease in white people.

The sample size was too small to permit an accurate estimate.
