This study aims to describe associations of obesity and CKD in a Swedish urban population. The impact of fat mass, from bioimpedance analysis, on eGFR based on cystatin C and/or creatinine is studied. 5049 participants from Malmö Diet and Cancer Study the cardiovascular arm (MDCS-CV) with available...
