Anemia & CKD “I felt everyone there was well informed and friendly. Everything was conducted very professionally. My results were explained in good detail and when I saw my doctor, I was informed enough to ask her for the tests I needed to address my concerns. Since the screening, I have kept an eye on my iron and have a lot more energy. I even lost about 15 lbs since the screening. One of my resolutions is to start taking better care of myself. Thank you for this program!” KEEP Participant: Screening date, August, 2005

he percentage of KEEP and NHANES participants with WHO and K/DOQI anemia increases with age, reaching 20 and 15%, respectively, in participants age 75 and older. For both definitions, anemia is more prominent in females compared to males—13.2 versus 8.8%, respectively, using the WHO anemia defini tion and 9.1 versus 3%, respectively using the K/DOQI definition. Blacks exhibit the highest rates of anemia in both populations. In black KEEP participants, and using the WHO and
s80
K/DOQI anemia definitions, rates reach 18.5 and 11.1%, respectively, compared to 7.9 and 5% in whites. By age and education status, older KEEP and NHANES participants generally have the highest percentages of WHO and K/DOQI anemia; anemia is most prominent in black participants. KEEP participants who are anemic are more likely to have a positive urinary microalbumin, higher microalbumin levels, and a greater likelihood of an abnormal ACR (≥30 mg/g).

NHANES 99-02
nder WHO and K/DOQI anemia definitions, 17.3 and 12.9% of KEEP participants with CKD are classified as anemic, and female participants are generally most likely to have anemia regardless of CKD status. By race, black participants are most likely to have anemia. In KEEP and NHANES participants with CKD, for example, 26 and 24%, respectively, are anemic using the WHO anemia definition and 19.6 and 11.2% are White classified as anemic when using Black the K/DOQI definition. Other
20
Of KEEP and NHANES participants with WHO or K/DOQI anemia, 77.9 and 81.8% in KEEP are classified as having Stage 3–5 CKD compared to 40.9 and 57.3% in the NHANES population. KEEP participants in the later stages of CKD are most likely to have anemia. Within all stages of CKD, black KEEP participants are the most likely to have anemia. KEEP participants with diabetes are generally the most likely to be classified as anemic, when using the WHO and K/DOQI anemia definitions.

he odds of having anemia are greatest in participants with eGFRs of less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2. In the KEEP population, for example, the odds of anemia in participants with eGFRs of less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2, are 80% (WHO) and 100% (K/DOQI) higher when compared to those with an eGFR equal to or greater than 90 ml/ min/1.73 m2. KEEP participants age 75 and older are more than two times as likely to have anemia compared to those age 46–60. By either the WHO or K/DOQI anemia
s84
definition, both black diabetic and nondiabetic KEEP participants are 3–5 times more likely to be anemic compared to white non-diabetics. KEEP and NHANES participants age 75 and older are more than twice as likely to be anemic compared to participants age 46–60. Diabetes is a significant risk factor for anemia. Black diabetics, for example, are five to ten times more likely to be anemic compared to white non-diabetics. Participants with eGFRs <60 are 2–4 times more likely to be anemic compared to those with eGFRS of 90+.

Figure 6.1 The percentage of KEEP and NHANES participants with anemia increases with age, reaching 20 and 15%, respectively, in participants age 75 and older. Anemia is more prominent in females compared to males—13.2 versus 8.8% in the KEEP population. Figure 6.6 Under WHO and K/DOQI anemia definitions, 17.3 and 12.9% of KEEP participants with CKD are classified as anemic.
Anemia Definitions
WHO Male: hemoglobin <13 g/dl Female: <12g/dl K/DOQI Males: hemoglobin <12g/dl Women age >50: <12g/dl Women age ≤50: <11 g/dl
CKD Definition
If eGFR by K/DOQI MDRD <60 ml/ min/1.73 m2 or eGFR ≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2 and abnormal albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR ≥30mg/g)
Positive Microalbumin >20 mg/L

Figure 6.9 Of KEEP and NHANES participants with WHO or K/DOQI anemia, 77.9 and 81.8% are classified as having Stage 3–5 CKD compared to 40.9 and 57.3% in the NHANES population. Table 6.a The odds of having anemia are greatest in participants with eGFRs of less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2. In the KEEP population, for example, the odds of anemia in participants with eGFRs of less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 are 80–100% higher when compared to those with an eGFR equal to or greater than 90 ml/min/1.73 m2.
CKD Stages
Stage 1: eGFR ≥90, ACR ≥30 mg/g Stage 2: eGFR 60–89, ACR ≥30 mg/g Stage 3: eGFR 30–59 Stage 4: eGFR 15–29 Stage 5: eGFR <15 or dialysis
Abnormal albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) ACR ≥30 mg/g
