Health knowledge made personal
  The authors used criteria as espoused by the National Kidney Foundation's Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative to make determinations of renal function. Of note, they only measured estimated glomerular filtration rate & microalbuminuria and then only just once in classifying the participants. 
They concluded that lower levels of physical activity and higher levels of sitting time were associated with higher risk of chronic kidney disease after taking into account the usual suspects. Interestingly enough, sitting time appeared to play a stronger role in women compared to physical activity in men.
