CKD chronic kidney disease, defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or an albumin-to-creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g; HDL high-density lipoprotein, SBP systolic blood pressure, DBP diastolic blood pressure, eGFR estimated glomerular filtration rate, ACE angiotensin converting enzyme
