- Abstract
Background: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is associated with several comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases. These comorbidities are also risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD), yet little is known about the risk of CKD in HS patients. Objectives: The objective was to study the prevalence of CKD in HS patients. Methods: Cross-sectional population-based study using the United States National Inpatient Sample database between January 1, 2002 and December 31, 2012 was performed. Results: We identified 23,767 hospital admissions for HS patients and 95,068 admissions for age- and gender-matched controls. The prevalence of CKD in HS patients was 6.3% (1,497/23,767) compared to non-HS controls which was 4.3% (4,052/95,068). The association of CKD was strongest in HS patients, who were ≥60 years old, 16.9% (475/2,811), male 7.3% (695/9,556), obese 7.8% (407/5,209), diabetic 12.5% (890/7,105), hyperlipidemic 13.3% (416/3,126), and had cardiovascular diseases 12.5% (631/5,045). The crude odds ratio of CKD in HS patients was 1.5 (95% CI: 1.420–1.605) compared to non-HS patients. The association remained significant after adjusting for important covariates with adjusted odds ratio of CKD in HS patients of 1.1 (95% CI: 1.014–1.176) compared to non-HS patients. Conclusions: Our findings show that there is a possible association of HS with CKD. Any signs of CKD should be assessed by a nephrologist as early diagnosis can hopefully prevent further progression.
