Including Measures of Chronic Kidney Disease to Improve Cardiovascular Risk Prediction by SCORE2 and SCORE2-OP

The 2021 ESC guideline on CVD prevention categorises moderate and severe CKD as high and very-high CVD risk status regardless of other factors like age and does not include eGFR and albuminuria in its SCORE2 and SCORE2-OP algorithms to predict CVD risk. Here, three CKD ‘Add-ons' to SCORE2 and SCORE2-OP were developed and validated: eGFR only, eGFR + urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (the primary Add-on), and eGFR + dipstick proteinuria.
