In this new March editorial, Dr. Thierno Birahim Gueye highlights chronic kidney disease as a major complication of hypertension and diabetes, emphasizing the importance of early detection.

Complications are often silent and particularly problematic in low- and middle-income countries, where diagnosis often comes too late.

Prevention and systematic screening in at-risk individuals allow for proactive intervention and limit the progression of the disease, thus reducing its impact and improving patients' quality of life.

To illustrate his points, we present a video interview with Professor Sidy Mohamed Seck from the Ouakam Military Hospital in Dakar, Senegal.
