AHA/ACC14 European15 KDIGO16
Published year 2013 2012 2013
Outcome(s) of interest CHD (coronary death and non-fatal myocardial infarction) + stroke CVD mortality CHD (coronary death and non-fatal myocardial infarction)
CKD measures for risk classification Not included due to uncertainty very high (=10-year CVD mortality risk >10%): GFR <30, diabetes plus elevated albuminuria
high (=10-year CVD mortality risk 5-10%): GFR 30-59
high risk: all persons with CKD aged ≥50 years and persons with CKD <50 years with predicted 10-year CHD risk >10%
