高血壓、高血糖及高血脂與慢性腎臟病防治
Hypertension, Hyperglycemia, Hyperlipidemia and the Prevention of Chronic Kidney Disease
摘要
『三高』係指高血壓、高血糖及高血脂，一直是台灣十大死因背後潛藏之主要危險因素，而「三高」所導致慢性腎臟病的相對風險相較一般人為高；依國民健康局估計，國內20歲以上成人每10位就有1位患有慢性腎臟疾病，且台灣在2002年之腎臟透析病患發生率上升為世界第一名，盛行率僅次於日本居世界第二名。近年來『三高』的發生率有依年齡增加而上升的趨勢，按臺灣2010年統計，65歲以上老年人口所佔比例為10.63%，預估2018年將達14.36%,邁入國際慣稱的「高齡社會」。藉時『三高』與其相關慢性腎臟疾病將會是公衛及健保上的重大問題，故推動全面性的慢性腎臟病預防的教育為當務之急。

The ”three highs” refers to high blood pressure, high blood sugar and high blood lipid; these have been considered to be the major risk factors in relation to the top ten leading causes of death in Taiwan. The relative risk for patients with chronic kidney disease caused by the ”three highs” is also higher than that for the general population. According to an estimate by the Bureau of Health Promotion, one in every ten adults who are 20 years old or above in Taiwan suffers from chronic kidney disease. In 2002, the incidence of kidney dialysis patients in Taiwan rose to No. 1 worldwide, with a prevalence second only to Japan. Recently, incidence of the ”three highs” has been found to exhibit an increasing trend with age. According to the statistics collected in Taiwan in 2010, the elderly population, namely those over 65 years old, accounted for 10.63% of the overall population, and it has been estimated that this will reach 14.36% in 2018. By then, Taiwan will become one of the ”aging societies” in the international community. In these circumstances, the ”three highs”, and the chronic kidney disease that is associated with them, will have become a major concern in terms of public health and healthcare. Therefore, promoting education that will help prevent chronic kidney disease should become an urgent priority.
