Gout: The rate of newly-diagnosed cases was 92 per 1,00,000 people. This marks anincrease of 5.5% from 1990. High body mass index and impaired kidney function have been found to be the risk factors of gout.

Even a slight loss of kidney function is associated with increased loss of bone mineral density and greater risk of disabling fractures that can lead to premature death.

Smokers who also suffer from type 2 diabetes are more than twice as likely to have impaired kidney function as compared to non-smokers.

Menopausal women with chronic kidney disease have lower scores on tests of mental functioning than those without chronic kidney disease.

Many people take a low dose of aspirin daily to help ward off heart trouble, but there could be a down side to it. Low-dose aspirin therapy may have a "significant adverse effect on renal function" in elderly patients, as reported by researchers.

According to a recent research it was found that men who smoke have more than triple the risk of developing impaired kidney function compared with their non smoking peers. In women, on the other hand, smoking was not associated with any kidney problems.
