A dataset of demographic and lifestyle risk factors for assessing chronic kidney disease development in diabetic patients.

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a significant comorbidity in diabetic populations, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, where early diagnosis and timely intervention remain critical healthcare challenges. This article presents a curated dataset comprising 400 diabetic patients from BIRDEM General Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh, with the aim of supporting early CKD detection, and healthcare planning. Among the 400 patients, 185 were diagnosed with CKD, and 215 were non-CKD cases. All individuals had been leaving with diabetes for at least ten years, enduring a consistent CKD progressing window. The dataset contains 20 variables focused on demographic and lifestyle-related risk factors, including age, gender, occupation type, BMI, family history of diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, physical activity, sleep quality, smoking, water intake, and detailed daily calorie consumption. The unique strength of this dataset lies in its longitudinal structure, which captures the health trajectories of patients over a decade. This temporal data is essential for predicting CKD progression, as it allows for the modelling of risk factors over time, a critical aspect often missed in datasets relying on single-year data. In resource-limited settings, where access to laboratory diagnostics is restricted, this dataset provides a valuable non-invasive alternative for CKD risk prediction. Given the growing global burden of CKD, especially among diabetic populations, this dataset serves as a valuable resource for researchers, healthcare providers, and policymakers seeking cost-effective, scalable strategies for early intervention and prevention.
