Overall there was(44) death 42% mortality risk. Patients witheGFR≥60 ml/min/1.73m219(18%), positivehistory of (CAD) is 3 (15.8%) and negativehistory of (CAD) is16 (84.2%, P=0.0001).group with reduced eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2and positive history of (CAD) 42(48.2%), andwith negative history is 45(51.8%). In eGFR≥60ml/min/1.73 m2group and positive historyof (CAD), the mortality rate is2 (10.5%) and innegative history (CAD) group is 17 (89.5%)Conclusion:This study concluded that impaired GFR,in an adult population, is independentlyassociated with significant levels of increasedrisk of mortality of fatal and nonfatal coronaryevents ,e GFR change over time addsprognostic information to traditional mortalityrisk predictors among patients withchronic
