Obesity is increasingly recognized as a major risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD), with evidence suggesting both direct and indirect pathways linking the two conditions. The review discusses how obesity-related glomerulopathy and complications such as hypertension and type 2 diabetes contribute to CKD. It also emphasizes the importance of lifestyle modifications and bariatric surgery in managing obesity in CKD patients, while noting the need for careful patient selection to optimize outcomes.
