About this trial
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients and strongly linked to obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes. Besides elevating cardiovascular disease risk, OSA may worsen renal function and diminish quality of life, making its understanding critical for CKD patient health.
This study will establish a large, long-term cohort of non-dialysis CKD patients to identify OSA risk factors, explore OSA's association with adverse renal outcomes, and determine OSA prevalence and epidemiological characteristics within the CKD population. The findings will provide a scientific foundation for early OSA identification, diagnosis, and intervention in CKD patients.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
The Progression of Chronic Kidney Diseases in CKD Patients
the progression of chronic kidney diseases is defined as: Patients had a 40% or a greater decrease in baseline eGFR(estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate); End-Stage Renal Disease (eGFR\< 15 ml/min/1.73 m2, initiation of renal replacement therapy or renal transplantation )
Renal death or Cardiovascular death
Deaths Directly Caused by Renal or Cardiovascular Dysfunction or Their Acute or Chronic Complications
Secondary outcomes
Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events(MACE)
Composite endpoint including: Non-fatal myocardial infarction, Non-fatal stroke, Hospitalization due to unstable angina, heart failure, or transient ischemic attack (TIA), Cardiovascular (CV) death.
Cardiovascular Adverse Events
Individual components of the MACE composite endpoint.
24-hour urine protein(g/24h)
Total protein excreted in urine over 24 hours. Normal Range: \<0.15 g/24h. Moderate proteinuria: \>2.8 g/24h, suggestive of active glomerular disease.
Rate of eGFR Decline(mL/min/1.73m²/year)
Annualized decline in eGFR(estimated glomerular filtration rate). Decline Rate = Baseline eGFR - Follow-up eGFR. Normal decline rate: \<-3 mL/min/1.73m²/year. Rate of eGFR Decline \>5 mL/min/1.73m²/year indicating rapid progression.
