Renal Disease and Kidney Transplantation in Hispanic American Persons.
The Hispanic population of the US is the second largest racial or ethnic group comprising 18.7% of the population. However, this population is incredibly heterogeneous differing in genetic traits, cultural upbringing, educational backgrounds, and financial status. The impact of this heterogeneity on the prevalence and outcomes of renal disease and kidney transplantation is understudied compared to non-Hispanic whites and African Americans. What is known appears to be underrecognized. This review aims to critically assess current medical literature on Hispanic individuals, focusing on etiological factors, disease progression, and outcomes related to chronic kidney disease (CKD) and kidney transplantation. By doing so, we aim to underscore key areas for further in-depth investigation.
