The majority of people with diabetes and/or high blood pressure - the two leading causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) - are not receiving recommended tests to identify this disease early, when medical treatment can slow or halt disease progression, according to the latest Quest Diagnostics Health Trends Report. In addition, the report's findings suggest that patients with early-stage CKD are not being well managed for contributing diseases, such as diabetes and hyperlipidemia.

These findings, released today by Quest Diagnostics Incorporated (NYSE: DGX) following the National Kidney Foundation's consensus conference, Cardio-Kidney Diabetes...The Triple Threat, are based on diagnostic test results from more than 5 million patients in the Quest Diagnostics database.
