[PMID: 38856016 PMCID: PMC11168229 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2024.2361094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Blood lipid management is a key approach in the prevention of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Remnant cholesterol (RC) plays an important role in the development of multiple diseases via chronic inflammation. The aim of our study was to determine the relationship between RC and CKD and explore the role of inflammation in this relationship. The 7696 subjects from the Chinese Health and Nutrition Survey were divided into four subgroups according to the quartile of RC. The estimated glomerular filtration rate was calculated using the CKD Epidemiology Collaboration equation. Fasting RC was calculated as total cholesterol minus low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Logistic regression analysis was employed to evaluate the relationships between RC and CKD. Mediation analysis was undertaken to identify potential mediators of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and white blood cells (WBCs). Of all participants, the mean age was 51 years, and the male accounted for 47.8%. The multivariable-adjusted odds ratios (95% CIs) for the highest versus lowest quartile of remnant cholesterol were 1.40 (1.10-1.78, p for trend = 0.006) for CKD. RC and preinflammatory markers have combined effect on CKD. The preinflammatory state, presented by increased hs-CRP or WBCs, partially mediated the association between RC and CKD with proportion of 10.14% (p = 0.002) and 11.65% (p = 0.012), respectively. In conclusion, this study suggested a positive relationship between RC and CKD, which was partially mediated by preinflammatory state. These findings highlight the importance of RC and inflammation in renal dysfunction.IMPACT STATEMENTWhat is already known on this subject?: Dyslipidemia plays an important role in the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Remnant cholesterol (RC), as a triglyceride-rich particle, can contribute to target organ damage, primarily through inflammatory pathways. However, the relationship between RC and CKD in the community-dwelling population, particularly the role of inflammation, is not yet fully understood.What do the results of this study add?: This study shows that RC was significantly associated with CKD. RC and preinflammatory status exhibit a combined effect on CKD. Preinflammatory state, presented by increased high-sensitivity C-reactive protein or white blood cells, partially mediated the association between RC and CKD.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research?: The study provides us with a better understanding of the role of RC and inflammation in kidney dysfunction and raises the awareness of RC in the management of CKD.

Duan XY, Fu JL, Sun LN, Mu ZJ, Xiu SL. Association between sensitivity to thyroid hormones and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. World J Diabetes 2024; 15:2081-2092. [DOI: 10.4239/wjd.v15.i10.2081] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2024] [Revised: 08/06/2024] [Accepted: 08/30/2024] [Indexed: 09/26/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dyslipidemia and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are chronic conditions with substantial public health implications. Effective management of lipid metabolism in patients with T2DM is critical. However, there has been insufficient attention given to the relationship between thyroid hormone sensitivity and dyslipidemia in the T2DM population, particularly concerning non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C).
AIM To clarify the association between thyroid hormone sensitivity and dyslipidemia in patients with T2DM.
METHODS In this cross-sectional study, thyroid hormone sensitivity indices, the thyroid feedback quantile-based index (TFQI), the thyroid-stimulating hormone index (TSHI), the thyrotrophic T4 resistance index (TT4RI), and the free triiodothyronine (FT3)/free thyroxine (FT4) ratio were calculated. Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the associations between those composite indices and non-HDL-C levels. Random forest variable importance and Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) summary plots were used to identify the strength and direction of the association between hyper-non-HDL-C and its major predictor.
RESULTS Among the 994 participants, 389 (39.13%) had high non-HDL-C levels. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the risk of hyper-non-HDL-C was positively correlated with the TFQI (OR: 1.584; 95%CI: 1.088-2.304; P = 0.016), TSHI (OR: 1.238; 95%CI: 1.034-1.482; P = 0.02), and TT4RI (OR: 1.075; 95%CI: 1.006-1.149; P = 0.032) but was not significantly correlated with the FT3/FT4 ratio. The relationships between composite indices of the thyroid system and non-HDL-C levels differed according to sex. An increased risk of hyper-non-HDL-C was associated with elevated TSHI levels in men (OR: 1.331; 95%CI: 1.003-1.766; P = 0.048) but elevated TFQI levels in women (OR: 2.337; 95%CI: 1.4-3.901; P = 0.001). Among the analyzed variables, the average SHAP values were highest for TSHI, followed by TT4RI.
CONCLUSION Impaired sensitivity to thyroid hormones was associated with high non-HDL-C levels in patients with T2DM.

Predictive value of total cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio for chronic kidney disease among adult male and female in Northwest China. Chronic Dis Transl Med 2024; 10:216-226. [PMID: 39027193 PMCID: PMC11252436 DOI: 10.1002/cdt3.122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Studies have found that the ratio of total cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TC/HDL-C) was associated with the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the relationship in different genders was rarely discussed. The aim of this study was to explore this relationship and assess its predictive power for both males and females. Methods Based on a prospective cohort platform in northwest China, 32,351 participants without CKD were collected in the baseline and followed up for approximately 5 years. Cox proportional hazard model and restricted cubic spline regression analysis were performed to investigate the association between TC, HDL-C, TC/HDL-C and CKD in adult female and male. The clinical application value of the indicators in predicting CKD was evaluated by the receiver operator characteristic curve. Results During a mean follow-up of 2.2 years, 484 males and 164 females developed CKD. After adjusted for relevant confounders, for every one standard deviation increase in TC, HDL-C and TC/HDL-C, the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for CKD were 1.17 (1.05-1.31), 0.84 (0.71-0.99), and 1.15 (1.06-1.25) for males, 0.94 (0.78-1.13), 0.58 (0.35-0.95), and 1.19 (1.01-1.40) for females, respectively. The results also showed that TC, HDL-C, and TC/HDL-C were associated with CKD in a linear dose-response relationship. The TC/HDL-C had the largest area under the curve (AUC) compared to TC and HDL-C, and the AUC among the females was larger than that among males. Conclusions The TC/HDL-C was significantly associated with CKD in adult males and females and has better clinical value in predicting CKD than TC and HDL-C, especially in females.

Abstract
Purpose Changes in inflammation, immunity, and nutritional status can promote the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and the Naples prognostic score (NPS) reflects changes in these three general clinical parameters. Indoleamine 2.3-dioxygenase (IDO) can block the function of inflammatory cells and inhibit the production of inflammatory cytokines. We examined use of the NPS and IDO activity to predict early-stage CKD. Patients and Methods Clinical and demographic parameters and the NPS were recorded for 47 CKD patients and 30 healthy controls. A one-way ANOVA or the rank sum test was used to compare variables in the different groups. Spearman or Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated, and logistic regression was used to identify significant factors. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was also performed. Results The NPS had a positive correlation with plasma IDO activity and IDO activity was lowest in controls, and increased with CKD stage. ROC analysis indicated that NPS had an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.779 when comparing controls with all CKD patients. A prediction model for CKD (-4.847 + [1.234 × NPS] + [6.160 × plasma IDO activity]) demonstrated significant differences between controls and patients with early-stage CKD, and for patients with different stages of CKD. This model had AUC values of 0.885 (control vs CKD1-4), 0.876 (control vs CKD2), 0.818 (CKD2 vs CKD3), and 0.758 (CKD3 vs CKD4). Conclusion A prediction model based on the NPS and IDO provided good to excellent predictions of early-stage CKD.

Abstract
Background Serum lipids were found to be correlated with chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. Here, we aimed to research the potential causal associations between five serum lipid parameters and the risk of diabetic nephropathy using several Mendelian Randomization methods. Methods Genetic data was obtained from the UK Biobank datasets. Causal effects were estimated using multiple MR methods. Heterogeneity and pleiotropy tests were performed. Results MR analysis revealed that HDL-C and TG exhibited causal associations with diabetic nephropathy (P<0.05). Similar trends were not observed for other lipid parameters. Conclusions Our research has suggested links between HDL-C, TG and diabetic nephropathy. The findings could contribute to further elucidation of the disease etiology. Strengths and limitations of this study This article only uses Mendel randomization method to analyze the relationship between blood lipids and diabetes nephropathy, which is more convincing when combined with population data.

Remnant cholesterol is an independent risk factor for the incidence of chronic kidney disease in newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes: A nationwide population-based study. Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2024; 210:111639. [PMID: 38548106 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2024.111639] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the impact of remnant cholesterol (remnant-C) on chronic kidney disease (CKD) incidence in newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes. METHODS This retrospective cohort study used Korean National Health Insurance Service data on 212,836 patients with newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes between 2009 and 2014. We conducted cox regression analysis to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for developing CKD according to remnant-C tertile. RESULTS During a median follow-up duration of 5.23 years, 6,850 CKD cases developed. In the fully adjusted model, HRs and 95 % CIs for incident CKD increased in the highest tertile of baseline remnant-C compared to the lowest (HR [95 % CI]; 1.234 [1.159-1.314]). This association was more prominent in patients with hypertension or low-income status (P for interaction < 0.05). Increased HRs in the highest tertile of remnant-C was sustained in type 2 diabetes patients within target range of conventional lipid profile such as low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) < 100 mg/dL and < 70 mg/dL (1.165 [1.041-1.304] and 1.308 [1.063-1.609]), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (1.243 [1.155-1.338]) and triglyceride (1.168 [1.076-1.268]), respectively. CONCLUSIONS In newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients, higher remnant-C is independently associated with CKD incidence, even when conventional lipid values are well-controlled.

Investigating linear and nonlinear associations of LDL cholesterol with incident chronic kidney disease, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality: A prospective and Mendelian randomization study. Atherosclerosis 2023; 387:117394. [PMID: 38029611 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2023.117394] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Observational studies suggest potential nonlinear associations of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) with cardio-renal diseases and mortality, but the causal nature of these associations is unclear. We aimed to determine the shape of causal relationships of LDL-C with incident chronic kidney disease (CKD), atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and all-cause mortality, and to evaluate the absolute risk of adverse outcomes contributed by LDL-C itself. METHODS Observational analysis and one-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) with linear and nonlinear assumptions were performed using the UK Biobank of >0.3 million participants with no reported prescription of lipid-lowering drugs. Two-sample MR on summary-level data from the Global Lipid Genetics Consortium (N = 296,680) and the CKDGen (N = 625,219) was employed to replicate the relationship for kidney traits. The 10-year probabilities of the outcomes was estimated by integrating the MR and Cox models. RESULTS Observationally, participants with low LDL-C were significantly associated with a decreased risk of ASCVD, but an increased risk of CKD and all-cause mortality. Univariable MR showed an inverse total effect of LDL-C on incident CKD (HR [95% CI]:0.84 [0.73-0.96]; p = 0.011), a positive effect on ASCVD (1.41 [1.29-1.53]; p<0.001), and no significant causal effect on all-cause mortality. Multivariable MR, controlling for high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglycerides, identified a positive direct effect on ASCVD (1.32 [1.18-1.47]; p<0.001), but not on CKD and all-cause mortality. These results indicated that genetically predicted low LDL-C had an inverse indirect effect on CKD mediated by HDL-C and triglycerides, which was validated by a two-sample MR analysis using summary-level data from the Global Lipid Genetics Consortium (N = 296,680) and the CKDGen consortium (N = 625,219). Suggestive evidence of a nonlinear causal association between LDL-C and CKD was found. The 10-year probability curve showed that LDL-C concentrations below 3.5 mmol/L were associated with an increased risk of CKD. CONCLUSIONS In the general population, lower LDL-C was causally associated with lower risk of ASCVD, but appeared to have a trade-off for an increased risk of CKD, with not much effect on all-cause mortality. LDL-C concentration below 3.5 mmol/L may increase the risk of CKD.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a severe condition and a significant public health issue worldwide, carrying the burden of an increased risk of cardiovascular events and mortality. The traditional factors that promote the onset and progression of CKD are cardiometabolic risk factors like hypertension and diabetes, but non-traditional contributors are escalating. Moreover, gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and an impaired immune response are emerging as crucial mechanisms in the disease pathology. The gut microbiome and kidney disease exert a reciprocal influence commonly referred to as "the gut-kidney axis" through the induction of metabolic, immunological, and endocrine alterations. Periodontal diseases are strictly involved in the gut-kidney axis for their impact on the gut microbiota composition and for the metabolic and immunological alterations occurring in and reciprocally affecting both conditions. This review aims to provide an overview of the dynamic biological interconnections between oral health status, gut, and renal pathophysiology, spotlighting the dynamic oral-gut-kidney axis and raising whether periodontal diseases and gut microbiota can be disease modifiers in CKD. By doing so, we try to offer new insights into therapeutic strategies that may enhance the clinical trajectory of CKD patients, ultimately advancing our quest for improved patient outcomes and well-being.

The causal effects of lipid traits on kidney function in Africans: bidirectional and multivariable Mendelian-randomization study. EBioMedicine 2023; 90:104537. [PMID: 37001235 PMCID: PMC10070509 DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2023.104537] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2022] [Revised: 03/08/2023] [Accepted: 03/08/2023] [Indexed: 03/31/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Observational studies have investigated the effect of serum lipids on kidney function, but these findings are limited by confounding, reverse causation and have reported conflicting results. Mendelian randomization (MR) studies address this confounding problem. However, they have been conducted mostly in European ancestry individuals. We, therefore, set out to investigate the effect of lipid traits on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on serum creatinine in individuals of African ancestry. METHODS We used the two-sample and multivariable Mendelian randomization (MVMR) approaches; in which instrument variables (IV's) for the predictor (lipid traits) were derived from summary-level data of a meta-analyzed African lipid GWAS (MALG, n = 24,215) from the African Partnership for Chronic Disease Research (APCDR) (n = 13,612) & the Africa Wits-IN-DEPTH partnership for Genomics studies (AWI-Gen) dataset (n = 10,603). The outcome IV's were computed from the eGFR summary-level data of African-ancestry individuals within the Million Veteran Program (n = 57,336). A random-effects inverse variance method was used in our primary analysis, and pleiotropy was adjusted for using robust and penalized sensitivity testing. The lipid predictors for the MVMR were high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and triglycerides (TG). FINDINGS We found a significant causal association between genetically predicted low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and eGFR in African ancestry individuals β = 1.1 (95% CI [0.411-1.788]; p = 0.002). Similarly, total cholesterol (TC) showed a significant causal effect on eGFR β = 1.619 (95% CI [0.412-2.826]; p = 0.009). However, the IVW estimate showed that genetically predicted HDL-C β = -0.164, (95% CI = [-1.329 to 1.00]; p = 0.782), and TG β = -0.934 (CI = [-2.815 to 0.947]; p = 0.33) were not significantly causally associated with the risk of eGFR. In the multivariable analysis inverse-variance weighted (MVIVW) method, there was evidence for a causal association between LDL and eGFR β = 1.228 (CI = [0.477-1.979]; p = 0.001). A significant causal effect of Triglycerides (TG) on eGFR in the MVIVW analysis β = -1.3 ([-2.533 to -0.067]; p = 0.039) was observed as well. All the causal estimates reported reflect a unit change in the outcome per a 1 SD increase in the exposure. HDL showed no evidence of a significant causal association with eGFR in the MVIVW method (β = -0.117 (95% CI [-1.252 to 0.018]; p = 0.840)). We found no evidence of a reverse causal impact of eGFR on serum lipids. All our sensitivity analyses indicated no strong evidence of pleiotropy or heterogeneity between our instrumental variables for both the forward and reverse MR analysis. INTERPRETATION In this African ancestry population, genetically predicted higher LDL-C and TC are causally associated with higher eGFR levels, which may suggest that the relationship between LDL, TC and kidney function may be U-shaped. And as such, lowering LDL_C does not necessarily improve risk of kidney disease. This may also imply the reason why LDL_C is seen to be a poorer predictor of kidney function compared to HDL. In addition, this further supports that more work is warranted to confirm the potential association between lipid traits and risk of kidney disease in individuals of African Ancestry.

Residential greenness and kidney function: A cohort study of Thai employees. Health Place 2023; 80:102993.

Abstract
Higher residential greenness is associated with a lower risk of chronic kidney disease, but evidence on the association between greenness exposure and kidney function has not been conducted. Using cohort data from Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) employees, we investigated the association between long-term exposure to greenness and kidney function using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR), Thailand. We analyzed data from 2022 EGAT workers (aged 25-55 years at baseline) from 2009 to 2019. The level of greenness was calculated using the satellite-derived Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). From 2008 to 2019, the average concentration of each air pollutant (PM10, O3, NO2, SO2, and CO) at the sub-district level in BMR was generated using the Kriging method. Long-term exposure for each participant was defined as the 1-year average concentrations before the date of the physical examination in 2009, 2014, and 2019. We employed linear mixed effects models to evaluate associations of NDVI and EVI with eGFR. The robustness of the results was also tested by including air pollutants in the models. After relevant confounders were controlled, the interquartile range increase in NDVI was associated with higher eGFR [1.03% (95%CI: 0.33, 1.74)]. After PM10 and SO2 were included in the models, the associations between NDVI and eGFR became weaker. The additions of O3, NO2, and CO strengthened the associations between them. In contrast, we did not find any association between EVI and eGFR. In conclusion, there was a positive association between NDVI and eGFR, but not for EVI. Air pollutants had a significant impact on the relationship between NDVI and eGFR. Additional research is needed to duplicate this result in various settings and populations to confirm our findings.

Abstract
The prevalence of obesity has increased dramatically during the past decades, which has been a major health problem. Since 1975, the number of people with obesity worldwide has nearly tripled. An increasing number of studies find obesity as a driver of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression, and the mechanisms are complex and include hemodynamic changes, inflammation, oxidative stress, and activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). Obesity-related kidney disease is characterized by glomerulomegaly, which is often accompanied by localized and segmental glomerulosclerosis lesions. In these patients, the early symptoms are atypical, with microproteinuria being the main clinical manifestation and nephrotic syndrome being rare. Weight loss and RAAS blockers have a protective effect on obesity-related CKD, but even so, a significant proportion of patients eventually progress to end-stage renal disease despite treatment. Thus, it is critical to comprehend the mechanisms underlying obesity-related CKD to create new tactics for slowing or stopping disease progression. In this review, we summarize current knowledge on the mechanisms of obesity-related kidney disease, its pathological changes, and future perspectives on its treatment.

Association between changes in lipid indexes and early progression of kidney dysfunction in participants with normal estimated glomerular filtration rate: a prospective cohort study. Endocrine 2022; 76:312-323. [PMID: 35239125 DOI: 10.1007/s12020-022-03012-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2021] [Accepted: 01/31/2022] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate whether non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (Non-HDL-C), remnant cholesterol (RC), and the ratios of lipid indexes are more closely associated with early progression of kidney dysfunction than traditional lipid indexes; and to explore the association between changes in serum lipids during follow-up and annual decline rate in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). METHODS In this prospective cohort study, 3909 participants with normal eGFR and age≥40 years at baseline were followed for 3.3 years. Progression of kidney dysfunction was assessed as annual decline rate in eGFR. Spearman correlation analysis, linear correlation models, and multiple logistic regression were used to assess the associations between lipid indexes at baseline/both baseline and follow-up and the annual decline rate in eGFR. RESULTS Compared with ΔLDL-C (β = 0.412), other lipid indexes such as ΔLDL-C/HDL-C (β = 0.565), ΔTC/HDL-C (β = 0.448), and ΔNon-HDL-C/HDL-C (β = 0.448) were more closely associated with annual decline rate in eGFR. High TG/HDL-C (OR = 1.699(1.177-2.454)) and TC/HDL-C (OR = 1.567(1.095-2.243)) at baseline, as well as high TC/HDL-C (OR = 1.478 (1.003-2.177)) and TG/HDL-C (OR = 1.53(1.044-2.244)) at both baseline and follow-up were associated with the annual decline rate in eGFR <0.5. High Non-HDL-C (OR = 1.633(1.025-2.602)) and LCI (OR = 1.631(1.010-2.416)) at both baseline and follow-up resulted in a 63% increase in risk of annual decline rate in eGFR >1. CONCLUSION High Non-HDL-C, RC and the ratios of lipid indexes were more closely associated with early progression of kidney injury than the increase of traditional lipid indexes. These lipid indexes should be monitored, even in participants with normal traditional serum lipid levels.

Abstract
Evidence on the association between hypertriglyceridemic-waist phenotype (HTGW) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is limited and inconsistent. We aimed to explore such association among 7406 Chinese aged ≥ 45 years in a cohort setting, followed by a meta-analysis. Participants were categorized into four phenotypes: NTNW (normal triglycerides and normal waist circumference), NTGW (isolated enlarged waist circumference), HTNW (isolated high triglycerides), and HTGW (high triglycerides and enlarged waist circumference). We used multivariate logistic regression to determine the association between different phenotypes and risk of CKD in the cohort study. For meta-analysis, we searched relevant studies from Embase, Medline, PubMed, and Web of Science from dataset inception up to May 1, 2021. A random-effect model was used to estimate the pooled effect and I2 statistic was applied to evaluate heterogeneity. In the cohort study, compared to the NTNW phenotype, HTGW (OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.32 to 2.51, p < 0.01) and NTGW (OR 1.48, 95% CI 1.13 to 1.94, p = 0.004) were significantly associated with CKD risk after 4 years follow-up, but not for the HTNW phenotype. The meta-analysis also showed a positive association between HTGW phenotype and CKD risk (pooled OR 1.53, 95% CI 1.31 to 1.79, I2 = 62.4%). Assessment of triglyceridemic-waist phenotypes might help to identify individuals with high-risk of developing CKD.

Abstract
Green space is associated with many health benefits, but evidence concerning the effects on chronic kidney disease (CKD) has not been investigated. Using the nationwide cross-sectional study of 47,204 adults from the China National Survey of Chronic Kidney Disease dataset and residential greenness assessed by the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), this study evaluated the association between residential greenness and CKD prevalence. An interquartile range increase in NDVI1000m (0.26) was associated with decreased odds of CKD for all participants with an odds ratio (OR) of 0.79 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.73-0.86). Subgroup analyses demonstrated more apparent inverse associations in younger adults <65 years, male participants, people in higher socio-economic status, as well as people with smoking and alcohol drinking habit. In addition, more apparent inverse associations were found in regions with higher fine particulate matter (PM2.5) concentration levels, with OR of 0.56 (95% CI: 0.49, 0.65) for higher pollution regions, and OR of 0.95 (95% CI: 0.83, 1.09) for lower pollution regions (P for interaction <0.001). The exposure-response curves captured more apparent declines in OR of CKD when in lower NDVI1000m exposure ranges (<0.6), even controlling for the PM2.5 concentration. Our results indicated that residential greenness might be beneficial for the prevention and control of CKD at the population level, suggesting the positive significance of strengthening green space construction, particularly in regions with low greenness.

Discordance between LDL-C and Apolipoprotein B Levels and Its Association with Renal Dysfunction: Insights from a Population-Based Study. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11020313.

Abstract
Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) are established markers of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), but when concentrations are discordant ApoB is the superior predictor. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with ASCVD, yet the independent role of atherogenic lipoproteins is contentious. Four groups were created based upon high and low levels of ApoB and LDL-C. Continuous and categorical variables were compared across groups, as were adjusted markers of CKD. Logistic regression analysis assessed association(s) with CKD based on the groups. Subjects were categorised by LDL-C and ApoB, using cut-off values of >160 mg/dL and >130 mg/dL, respectively. Those with low LDL-C and high ApoB, compared to those with high LDL-C and high ApoB, had significantly higher body mass index (30.7 vs. 30.1 kg/m2) and waist circumference (106.1 vs. 102.7 cm) and the highest fasting blood glucose (117.5 vs. 112.7 mg/dL), insulin (16.6 vs. 13.1 μU/mL) and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (5.3 vs. 3.7) profiles (all p < 0.001). This group, compared to those with high LDL-C and high ApoB, also had the highest levels of urine albumin (2.3 vs. 2.2 mg/L), log albumin-creatinine ratio (2.2 vs. 2.1 mg/g) and serum uric acid (6.1 vs. 5.6 mg/dL) and the lowest estimated glomerular filtration rate (81.3 vs. 88.4 mL/min/1.73 m2) (all p < 0.001). In expanded logistic regression models, using the low LDL-C and low ApoB group as a reference, those with low LDL-C and high ApoB had the strongest association with CKD, odds ratio (95% CI) 1.12 (1.08-1.16). Discordantly high levels of ApoB are independently associated with increased likelihood of CKD. ApoB remains associated with metabolic dysfunction, regardless of LDL-C.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was to systematically test whether previously reported risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD) are causally related to CKD in European and East Asian ancestries using Mendelian randomization. METHODS A total of 45 risk factors with genetic data in European ancestry and 17 risk factors in East Asian participants were identified as exposures from PubMed. We defined the CKD by clinical diagnosis or by estimated glomerular filtration rate of <60 ml/min/1.73 m2. Ultimately, 51 672 CKD cases and 958 102 controls of European ancestry from CKDGen, UK Biobank and HUNT, and 13 093 CKD cases and 238 118 controls of East Asian ancestry from Biobank Japan, China Kadoorie Biobank and Japan-Kidney-Biobank/ToMMo were included. RESULTS Eight risk factors showed reliable evidence of causal effects on CKD in Europeans, including genetically predicted body mass index (BMI), hypertension, systolic blood pressure, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein A-I, lipoprotein(a), type 2 diabetes (T2D) and nephrolithiasis. In East Asians, BMI, T2D and nephrolithiasis showed evidence of causality on CKD. In two independent replication analyses, we observed that increased hypertension risk showed reliable evidence of a causal effect on increasing CKD risk in Europeans but in contrast showed a null effect in East Asians. Although liability to T2D showed consistent effects on CKD, the effects of glycaemic phenotypes on CKD were weak. Non-linear Mendelian randomization indicated a threshold relationship between genetically predicted BMI and CKD, with increased risk at BMI of >25 kg/m2. CONCLUSIONS Eight cardiometabolic risk factors showed causal effects on CKD in Europeans and three of them showed causality in East Asians, providing insights into the design of future interventions to reduce the burden of CKD.

The Association Between Hypertriglyceridemic-Waist Phenotype and Chronic Kidney Disease in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Cross-Sectional METAL Study. Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2022; 15:1885-1895. [PMID: 35757194 PMCID: PMC9231417 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s359742] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 06/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was measuring the association between the hypertriglyceridemic-waist (HTGW) phenotype and chronic kidney disease in a large type 2 diabetes population. METHODS A total of 4254 diabetic patients from the cross-sectional Environmental Pollutant Exposure and Metabolic Diseases in Shanghai (METAL) study were enrolled. The hypertriglyceridemic-waist (HTGW) phenotype was defined as the presence of an elevated waist circumference (WC) and elevated triglyceride (TG) concentration. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or urinary albumin creatinine ratio (uACR) more than 30 mg/g. Linear and multiple logistic regression models were used for measuring the association between HTGW phenotype and chronic kidney disease. RESULTS The prevalence of CKD was 29% and 35.8% in total participants and participants with HTGW phenotype, respectively. Subjects in the HTGW phenotype group were more likely to have CKD (OR 1.47, 95% CI: 1.11, 1.95) compared with subjects in the normal waist circumference and normal triglycerides (NTNW) group. HTGW phenotype was both associated with the increasing risk of decreased eGFR (OR 1.31, 95% CI: 1.02, 1.75) and elevated uACR (OR 1.57, 95% CI: 1.18, 2.11). Furthermore, the stratified analysis showed that the strongest positive association between HTGW phenotype and CKD presence was found in the subgroup of presence of hypertension. The associations were all fully adjusted for age, sex, BMI, current smoking, current drinking and other confounding factors. CONCLUSION Our study suggested a positive association between the HTGW phenotype and CKD in Chinese type 2 diabetes patients. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm our findings and to investigate the underlying biological mechanisms.

Acta Diabetol 2021; 58:1615-1625. [PMID: 34181081 DOI: 10.1007/s00592-021-01765-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2021] [Accepted: 06/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
AIMS Limited data regarding the association between remnant cholesterol (RC) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), largely based on an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (low eGFR), have yielded inconsistent results, and no report has demonstrated the relationship of RC with CKD [defined as low eGFR and/or albuminuria (defined as urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) ≥ 30 mg/g)] in Chinese general middle-aged and elderly population. Hence, we aimed to investigate the association between RC and CKD in such population. METHODS In total, 7356 Chinese participants aged ≥ 40 years were recruited from five regional communities in Luzhou city between May 2011 and December 2011. Fasting RC was calculated from the lipid profile measured by standard laboratory procedures. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to evaluate the possible association between RC and CKD. RESULTS Participants in the highest quartile of RC had higher body mass index, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), fasting and 2-h postload blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin A1C, prevalence of prediabetes, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), hypertension, CKD, albuminuria, low eGFR, and lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and eGFR compared with those in the lowest quartile (all P for trend < 0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the risk of CKD gradually increased across RC quartiles (P for trend < 0.01), and participants in the highest quartile of RC were at a significantly increased risk of prevalent CKD compared to those in the lowest quartile in total subjects (odds rate: 1.344, 95% confidence intervals 1.097-1.648, P < 0.01). In subgroup analysis, significant relation between RC level and increased risk of prevalent CKD was detected in women, subjects with overweight/obesity, non-prediabetes, hypertension, normal HDL-C, appropriate and high LDL-C, and without cardiovascular disease (CVD) events after multiple adjustments. CONCLUSIONS Higher RC is independently associated with increased risk of prevalent CKD, and RC might serve as a new risk biomarker for CKD in a general middle-aged and elderly Chinese population, especially in women, subjects with overweight/obesity, non-prediabetes, hypertension, normal HDL-C, appropriate and high LDL-C, and without CVD events.

Abstract
Background The causal nature of the observed associations between serum lipids and apolipoproteins and kidney function are unclear. Methods Using two-sample and multivariable Mendelian randomization (MR), we examined the causal effects of serum lipids and apolipoproteins on kidney function, indicated by the glomerular-filtration rate estimated using creatinine (eGFRcrea) or cystatin C (eGFRcys) and the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). We obtained lipid- and apolipoprotein-associated genetic variants from the Global Lipids Genetics Consortium (n = 331 368) and UK Biobank (n = 441 016), respectively, and kidney-function markers from the Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT; n = 69 736) and UK Biobank (n = 464 207). The reverse causal direction was examined using variants associated with kidney-function markers selected from recent genome-wide association studies. Results There were no strong associations between genetically predicted lipid and apolipoprotein levels with kidney-function markers. Some, but inconsistent, evidence suggested a weak association of higher genetically predicted atherogenic lipid levels [indicated by low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), triglycerides and apolipoprotein B] with increased eGFR and UACR. For high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), results differed between eGFRcrea and eGFRcys, but neither analysis suggested substantial effects. We found no clear evidence of a reverse causal effect of eGFR on lipid or apolipoprotein traits, but higher UACR was associated with higher LDL-C, triglyceride and apolipoprotein B levels. Conclusion Our MR estimates suggest that serum lipid and apolipoprotein levels do not cause substantial changes in kidney function. A possible weak effect of higher atherogenic lipids on increased eGFR and UACR warrants further investigation. Processes leading to higher UACR may lead to more atherogenic lipid levels.

Association of High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol With GFR Decline in a General Nondiabetic Population. Kidney Int Rep 2021; 6:2084-2094.

Abstract
Introduction Although lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels are considered a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), experimental evidence suggest that aging, inflammation, and oxidative stress may remodel HDL-C, leading to dysfunctional HDL-C. Population studies on HDL-C and loss of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) reported inconsistent results, but they used inaccurate estimates of the GFR and may have been confounded by comorbidity. Methods We investigated the association of HDL-C levels with risk of GFR loss in a general population cohort; the participants were aged 50-62 years and did not have diabetes, CVD, or chronic kidney disease (CKD) at baseline. The GFR was measured using iohexol-clearance at baseline (n=1627) and at the follow-up (n=1324) after a median of 5.6 years. We also investigated any possible effect modification by low-grade inflammation, physical activity, and sex. Results Higher HDL-C levels were associated with steeper GFR decline rates and increased risk of rapid GFR decline (>3 ml/min per 1.73 m2 per year) in multivariable adjusted linear mixed models and logistic regression (-0.64 ml/min per 1.73 m2 per year [95% CI -0.99, -0.29; P < 0.001] and odds ratio 2.7 [95% CI 1.4, 5.2; P < 0.001] per doubling in HDL-C). Effect modifications indicated a stronger association between high HDL-C and GFR loss in physically inactive persons, those with low-grade inflammation, and men. Conclusion Higher HDL-C levels were independently associated with accelerated GFR loss in a general middle-aged nondiabetic population.

Abstract
The association between thyroid function and dyslipidemia has been well documented in observational studies. However, observational studies are prone to confounding, making it difficult to conduct causal inference. We performed a 2-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) using summary statistics from large-scale genome-wide association studies of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free T4 (FT4), and blood lipids. We chose the inverse variance-weighted (IVW) method for the main analysis, and consolidated results through various sensitivity analyses involving 6 different MR methods under different model specifications. We further conducted genetic correlation analysis and colocalization analysis to deeply reflect the causality. The IVW method showed per 1 SD increase in normal TSH was significantly associated with a 0.048 SD increase in total cholesterol (TC; P < 0.001) and a 0.032 SD increase in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL; P = 0.021). A 1 SD increase in normal FT4 was significantly associated with a 0.056 SD decrease in TC (P = 0.014) and a 0.072 SD decrease in LDL (P = 0.009). Neither TSH nor FT4 showed causal associations with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides. No significant causal effect of blood lipids on normal TSH or FT4 can be detected. All results were largely consistent when using several alternative MR methods, and were reconfirmed by both genetic correlation analysis and colocalization analysis. Our study suggested that, even within reference range, higher TSH or lower FT4 are causally associated with increased TC and LDL, whereas no reverse causal association can be found.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common disease and it is related to a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and end-stage renal disease that can be prevented by the earlier recognition and diagnosis of individuals at risk. Even though risk factors for CKD have been recognized, the effectiveness of CKD risk classification via prediction models remains uncertain. This paper intends to introduce a new predictive model for CKD using US image.
Methods
The proposed model includes three main phases “(1) preprocessing, (2) feature extraction, (3) and classification.” In the first phase, the input image is subjected to preprocessing, which deploys image inpainting and median filtering processes. After preprocessing, feature extraction takes place under four cases; (a) texture analysis to detect the characteristics of texture, (b) proposed high-level feature enabled local binary pattern (LBP) extraction, (c) area based feature extraction, and (d) mean intensity based feature extraction. These extracted features are then subjected for classification, where “optimized deep convolutional neural network (DCNN)” is used. In order to make the prediction more accurate, the weight and the activation function of DCNN are optimally chosen by a new hybrid model termed as diversity maintained hybrid whale moth flame optimization (DM-HWM) model.
Results
The accuracy of adopted model at 40th training percentage was 44.72, 11.02, 5.59, 3.92, 3.92, 3.57, 2.59, 1.71, 1.68, and 0.42% superior to traditional artificial neural networks (ANN), support vector machine (SVM), NB, J48, NB-tree, LR, composite hypercube on iterated random projection (CHIRP), CNN, moth flame optimization (MFO), and whale optimization algorithm (WOA) models.
Conclusions
Finally, the superiority of the adopted scheme is validated over other conventional models in terms of various measures.

Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2021; 14:4513-4522. [PMID: 34785920 PMCID: PMC8590978 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s337190] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Accepted: 11/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Some studies have reported that chronic kidney disease (CKD) or the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is significantly associated with metabolic abnormalities. METHODS Six hundred forty-six community residents aged 45-60 years without overt renal dysfunction were recruited in this cross-sectional study. eGFR was estimated by serum creatinine measurement. The visceral fat area (VFA) and subcutaneous fat area (SFA) were assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip ratio (WHR) were also evaluated. Additionally, we tested the subjects' blood lipid levels to diagnose dyslipidemia. RESULTS Compared with the subjects with neither dyslipidemia nor obesity, men with both dyslipidemia and high obesity indices, such as BMI, WHR and VFA, showed a significantly lower mean eGFR; women with dyslipidemia with high WHR, VFA or SFA also showed a significantly lower mean eGFR. Although an independent association between the metabolic variables and eGFR was not found except for BMI, some of the combined effects of each variable were related to eGFR decline. Comorbidity of dyslipidemia and high WHR was significant risk factor for eGFR reduction (β -8.805, SD 4.116, p < 0.05). Additionally, comorbidity of dyslipidemia and high obesity indices such as BMI (β -12.942, SD 5.268, p < 0.05) and VFA (β -7.069, SD 3.394, p < 0.05) were significant risk factors for eGFR reduction in men. CONCLUSION The combined effect of dyslipidemia and high obesity indices is significantly related to the decline in eGFR. The association is more profound in men.
