Heart, kidney and metabolic burden centers on later stages

Stages 3–4 included 15.8% of US adults but accounted for 76% of estimated years lost to premature death attributed to cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome.Stages 3–4 included 15.8% of US adults but accounted for 76% of estimated years lost to premature death attributed to cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome.
