Parental History of Premature Cardiovascular Disease, Estimated GFR, and Rate of Estimated GFR Decline: Results From the Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study

Parental history of CVD was associated with lower baseline eGFR, higher odds of decreased eGFR, and a nominally faster rate of eGFR decline in the offspring. Such findings may imply previously unrecognized cross-generational links between both diseases and be of support in community screening programs.
