A retrospective study conducted in 2023 on risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD), in patients from Southern Libya (Wadi Ataba). The present study was focused on the relationship between a few disorders that have been linked to chronic kidney disease (CKD) and other diseases. The goal of the current study is to investigate the risk factors for chronic renal disease in the city of Wadi Ataba in southern Libya. The 27-questions questionnaire was used to gather the data, which were included categories such as personal information, health conditions, family history of diabetes, hypertension, and renal failure, questions regarding the abuse of analgesics and herbs, questions about energy drinks and their origins, and questions about lifestyle habits such as drinking water and source of them. 379 participants were interviewed. Response rate was 98 %. Among the patients in our samples, which found that the highest risk factors for CKD were hypertension (HT) at 28.5%, followed by diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension combined at 16.1%, and diabetes at 36.1%..One important finding of the current study is the increased association between diadetes and CDK. They represent about one third (29.1%).
