KOTA KINABALU: The rise of chronic kidney disease cases is due to a growing prevalence of non-transmittable diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure, says Sabah Health Department director Datuk Dr Asits Sanna.
He said based on current statistics, more than a million adults in Malaysia are diagnosed with what is called the tetrad of simultaneous medical conditions - high blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol and obesity.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
