Abstract

Immune system dysregulation is associated with end-stage renal disease. Although decreased cellular immunity increases susceptibility to herpes zoster, the risk of herpes zoster in patients with earlier stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is unclear. A matched-cohort study. Data from the Taiwan Longitudinal Health Insurance Database (LHID) for 2004-2006 were analyzed. The study cohort included patients 18 years or older given a diagnosis of CKD (excluding patients treated by dialysis or transplant) in 2004-2005 (n = 13,321). The comparison cohort (n = 66,605) included 5 randomly selected age- and sex-matched controls for each patient in the study cohort. CKD. Incident cases of CKD were identified using the Taiwan LHID. CKD was ascertained from International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) codes. Herpes zoster, ascertained from ICD-9-CM codes. All participants were followed up from the date of cohort entry until they developed herpes zoster or the end of 2006. Cox proportional hazard regressions were performed to compare the hazard rates of herpes zoster in the CKD cohort and the age- and sex-matched comparison cohort. We identified 13,321 patients with a diagnosis of CKD who match...Continue Reading
