1. IntroductionCKD is a leading cause of mortality worldwide, affecting 15–20% of adults worldwide [1]. Primary and secondary nephropathies are the major contributors of chronic kidney injury, with the persistent synthesis and accumulation of fibrous matrix in the interstitial space leading to extensive scarring of the kidneys. This results in tubular interstitial fibrosis and glomerulosclerosis, accelerating the progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) [2].
