Abstract
The study was conducted to identify some socioeconomic variables responsible for the prevalence of
hypertensive kidney disease among Bangladeshi adults of 18 years and above. For this, 498 males and 497
females, totalling 995 adults of both urban and rural localities were investigated. In the sample there were
17.6% hypertensive adults and 18.9% of them were suffering from hypertension and kidney disease
simultaneously. Beside other percentages of respondents, there were 19.6% elderly people of ages 50 years
and above, 30.2% obese adults, 67.0% diabetic patients, 44.4% involved in sedentary activity and 33.1%
smokers. The overall percentage of hypertensive kidney patients was 3.3. These group of patients were
discriminated from the remaining 96.7% adults. During discrimination duration of diabetes was identified
as most responsible variable followed by age, body mass index, sedentary activity, smoking habit, etc. The
risk of prevalence of hypertensive kidney disease was 12.25 times in diabetic patients suffering for 15 years
and above compared to the risk of prevalence in other adults. The risk was 8.43 times in elderly people,
16.80 times in obese adults, 2.50 times in adults involved in sedentary activity, and 1.91 times in smoker
adults. Higher risk rate was also observed in adults of lower economic group of families.
