Background

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) represents a significant healthcare challenge in the United States, with direct medical costs ranging from $6,592 to $280,727 per person. Among the major modifiable risk factors, dietary habits play a crucial role, yet state-wise comparative assessments remain scarce.

Methods

Using the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 toolkit, we evaluated the impact of seven dietary risk factors on CKD-related deaths, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), and years lived with disability (YLDs) across the US from 1990 to 2021, segmented by age, sex, year, and location.

Results

The study observed the highest total percentage change (TPC) in CKD-related deaths due to high consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (497%), followed by diets high in processed meat (473%), low in vegetables (386%), high in red meat (352%), low in whole grains (332%), and low in fruits (294%) over the studied period. Oklahoma saw the most significant increase in age-standardized mortality rates by 234%, with Alabama experiencing a 43% rise in YLD rates. The age group 80-84 reported the highest number of deaths at 5,468, followed by the 70-74 age group at 13,847 in 2021. Males experienced a higher burden compared to females over the last three decades.

Conclusion

Dietary risk factors accounted for 26.70% of all CKD-related deaths in 2021. Given these findings, enhancing public awareness through targeted e-health and m-health educational campaigns is critical to mitigate the impact of poor dietary habits on CKD.
