Abstract

Among the many adverse effects of tobacco exposure is the increased risk for progression of kidney disease. Individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD), who already face increased cardiovascular event rates compared to the general population, are at even greater risk if they smoke. Despite these risks and the increased focus on smoking cessation in the general population in recent years, national guidelines have not specifically targeted individuals with CKD. There are similarly sparse data specific to individuals with CKD regarding the safety and efficacy of evidence-based smoking cessation modalities. This review aims to identify the risks of nicotine dependence in individuals with CKD and the potential benefits of smoking cessation; discuss current strategies for smoking cessation, including behavioral and pharmacologic therapies such as varenicline; and extrapolate these interventions to the unique challenges of this population. Much of the data presented stem from evidence for the general population but are described with additional consideration in dosing of nicotine replacement therapy, as well as non-nicotine pharmacotherapy and treatment modality for individuals with CKD.

  • Use of e-cigarettes has increased over time, their safety especially with regard to CVD has been questioned, and their effects on kidney disease are unknown.

    “Although use of e-cigarettes has increased over time, their safety, especially with regard to CVD, has been questioned, and their effects on kidney disease are unknown.”

    From KDIGO 2022 Clinical Practice Guideline for Diabetes Management in Chronic Kidney Disease (2022) · cites this paper as [185]

    The Background section (page unavailable) describes growing e-cigarette use. The Non-combustible products section (page unavailable) questions their safety, citing potential harm and limited knowledge of long-term effects. It does not specifically address cardiovascular safety or state that their effects on kidney disease are unknown. (LLM, conf=0.84)

  • Although dedicated trials are lacking in those with CKD, these interventions are likely to confer similar benefits in those with diabetes and CKD.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
