Briefly explain how you can tell what type of study it is. In 2010, we examined the medical records of 2,000 patients ages 53+ associated with Kaiser Permanente (large health care organization) who did NOT have kidney disease in 2005. Then, we look back in the records to see who took BZDs from 2000-2005. After that, we look to see who developed kidney disease from 2006 until 2008. We compared the rates of kidney disease among those who took the BZDs and those who didn’t.
