Research Article: Association between oxidative balance score in adults with and without chronic kidney disease: 2011–2028 NHANES

Abstract


Introduction: Oxidative stress status is associated with CKD; however, few studies have investigated this association. The oxidative balance score (OBS) reflects systemic stress status and consists of 16 anti-and pro-oxidant dietary factors and four anti-and pro-oxidant lifestyle factors. Higher OBS implies exposure to more antioxidants. The purpose of this study was to explore the association between OBS and CKD.
