The general external exposome and the development or progression of chronic kidney disease: a systematic review and meta-analyses. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024:124509. [PMID: 38968981 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.124509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/07/2024]
Abstract
The impact of environmental risk factors on chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains unclear. This systematic review aims to provide an overview of the literature on the association between the general external exposome and CKD development or progression. We searched MEDLINE and EMBASE for case-control or cohort studies, that investigated the association of the general external exposome with a change in eGFR or albuminuria, diagnosis or progression of CKD, or CKD-related mortality. The risk of bias of included studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Summary effect estimates were calculated using random-effects meta-analyses. Most of the 66 included studies focused on air pollution (n=33), e.g. particulate matter (PM) and nitric oxides (NOx), and heavy metals (n=21) e.g. lead and cadmium. Few studies investigated chemicals (n=7) or built environmental factors (n=5). No articles on other environment factors such as noise, food supply, or urbanization were found. PM2.5 exposure was associated with an increased CKD and end-stage kidney disease incidence, but not with CKD-related mortality. There was mixed evidence regarding the association of NO2 and PM10 on CKD incidence. Exposure to heavy metals might be associated with an increased risk of adverse kidney outcomes, however, evidence was inconsistent. Studies on effects of chemicals or built environment on kidney outcomes were inconclusive. In conclusion, prolonged exposure to PM2.5 is associated with an increased risk of CKD incidence and progression to kidney failure. Current studies predominantly investigate the exposure to air pollution and heavy metals, whereas chemicals and the built environment remains understudied. Substantial heterogeneity and mixed evidence were found across studies. Therefore, long-term high-quality studies are needed to elucidate the impact of exposure to chemicals or other (built) environmental factors and CKD.

Associations between frailty, genetic predisposition, and chronic kidney disease risk in middle-aged and older adults: A prospective cohort study. Maturitas 2024; 187:108059. [PMID: 38941958 DOI: 10.1016/j.maturitas.2024.108059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/30/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cross-sectional evidence has shown that frailty is highly prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, there is limited evidence of the longitudinal associations between frailty, genetic predisposition to CKD, and the risk of CKD in the general population. Therefore, this study aimed to examine such associations among participants in the UK Biobank. STUDY DESIGN This is a prospective cohort study included 370,965 middle-aged and older adults from the UK Biobank. Physical frailty was assessed using a modified version of the Fried phenotype classification. A weighted genetic risk score was built using 263 variants associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Incident CKD was identified from hospital inpatient records. RESULTS Over a median follow-up of 12.3 years, we documented a total of 11,121 incident CKD cases. Time-dependent Cox proportional hazards regression models indicated that individuals with frailty (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.94, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.81-2.08) and pre-frailty (HR: 1.27, 95 % CI: 1.22-1.33) had an increased risk of developing CKD, compared with non-frail individuals. No significant interaction between frailty and genetic risk score was observed (P for interaction = 0.41). The highest risk was observed among the individuals with high genetic risk and frailty (HR: 2.31, 95 % CI: 2.00-2.68). CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated that frailty and pre-frailty were associated with increased risk of incident CKD in middle-age and older adults, regardless of genetic risk of CKD. Our study underscores the importance of frailty screening and intervention as a potential strategy to prevent CKD. Future clinical trials are needed to validate our findings.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 946:174069. [PMID: 38908586 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.174069] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rapid kidney function decline (RKFD) is a main clinical feature of early chronic kidney disease (CKD) in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Environmental and genetic factors influencing RKFD remain inadequately elucidated. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to examine the associations of metals with RKFD among T2D and to further investigate the effect of metal mixtures on RKFD with the modifying effect of genetic susceptibility. METHODS This study included 2209 people with T2D (1942 had genotyping data) free of CKD at baseline from the Dongfeng-Tongji cohort. We used inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) to measure 23 metals in baseline plasma. Using elastic net (ENET), multivariate logistic regression, and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) model, we examined independent associations of multiple metals with RKFD. We calculated the environmental risk score (ERS) to assess the effects of metal mixtures on RKFD and the genetic risk score (GRS) to assess genetic susceptibility. RKFD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) loss > 3 mL/min/1.73 m2/year. RESULTS During a median of 9.8 years follow-up, 262 participants developed RKFD. Aluminum, vanadium, zinc, selenium, rubidium, tin, barium, and tungsten were screened from ENET. In multivariate logistic models, vanadium, selenium, and tungsten were negatively associated with RKFD, while zinc, tin, and rubidium were positively associated. The BKMR showed a nonlinear association of vanadium and rubidium with RKFD and interactions between metals (barium‑vanadium, barium‑rubidium). The ERS was positive associated with RKFD (per SD increase in ERS, OR = 1.94, 95% CI: 1.66, 2.27). No significant interaction between ERS and GRS was observed on RKFD, however, participants in the highest ERS and GRS group had the highest RKFD risk. CONCLUSION Vanadium and rubidium were associated with RKFD in T2D. Metal mixtures was associated with an increased risk of RKFD in T2D, particularly in those at high genetic risk.

Long-term exposure to varying-sized particulate matters and kidney disease in middle-aged and elder adults: A 8-year nationwide cohort study in China. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 911:168621. [PMID: 37977376 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.168621] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
Evidence for the causal relationship of particulate matters (PMs) exposure with kidney disease, especially PM1, PM1-2.5 and PM2.5-10, remained scarce among developing countries with severe pollution. We conducted a longitudinal cohort study involving 13,041 adults with free kidney disease from 150 Chinese counties. PMs concentrations were generated using a well-established satellite-based spatiotemporal model. And the time-varying Cox regression model along with stratified analyses were performed to determine the association and potential modifiers, respectively. We also calculated the population-attributable fraction to evaluate the burden of kidney disease attributable to PMs pollution. Between Jan 2011 and Dec 2018, 985 kidney disease incidents were identified with an incidence rate of 12.69 per 1000 person-years. Significant dose-response relationships were observed for all 5 kinds PMs. Specifically, an increased risk of kidney disease was associated with per 10 μg/m3 increment of PM1 (HR = 1.187, 95%CI: 1.114 to 1.265), PM1-2.5 (1.326, 1.212 to 1.452), PM2.5 (1.197, 1.139 to 1.258), PM2.5-10 (1.297, 1.240 to 1.357), and PM10 (1.137, 1.108 to 1.166). A mixture analysis method of weighted quantile regression model revealed that PM2.5-10 predominated the PMs mixture index (57.1 %), and followed with PM10 (26.4 %). Stratified analyses indicated the elder, overweight persons, smokers, respiratory patients and urban residents were more vulnerable to PMs pollution than their counterparts. Calculated population attributable fractions of kidney disease attributable to PMs pollution was 16.67-39.47 %. Higher PMs pollution was associated with the increased risk of kidney disease development in China. Acceleration of efforts to reduce PMs pollution was therefore urgently needed to alleviate kidney disease burden.

Abstract
Several studies have reported an increased risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) outcomes after long-term exposure (more than 1 year) to particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of ≤ 2.5 µm (PM2.5). However, the conclusions remain inconsistent. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to examine the association between long-term PM2.5 exposure and CKD outcomes. A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled trials, and Embase for relevant studies published until August 10, 2023. The main outcomes were incidence and prevalence of CKD as well as incidence of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). The random-effect model meta-analyses were used to estimate the risk of each outcome among studies. Twenty two studies were identified, including 14 cohort studies, and 8 cross-sectional studies, with a total of 7,967,388 participants. This meta-analysis revealed that each 10 μg/m3 increment in PM2.5 was significantly associated with increased risks of both incidence and prevalence of CKD [adjusted odds ratio (OR) 1.31 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.24 to 1.40), adjusted OR 1.31 (95% CI 1.03 to 1.67), respectively]. In addition, the relationship with ESKD incidence is suggestive of increased risk but not conclusive (adjusted OR 1.16; 95% CI 1.00 to 1.36). The incidence and prevalence of CKD outcomes had a consistent association across all subgroups and adjustment variables. Our study observed an association between long-term PM2.5 exposure and the risks of CKD. However, more dedicated studies are required to show causation that warrants urgent action on PM2.5 to mitigate the global burden of CKD.

Abstract
Although epidemiological studies have evaluated the association between ambient air pollution and chronic kidney disease (CKD), the results remain mixed. To clarify the nature of the association, we conducted a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the global relationship between air pollution and CKD. The Web of Science, PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library databases systematically were searched for studies published up to July 2023 and included 32 studies that met specific criteria. The random effects model was used to derive overall risk estimates for each pollutant. The meta-analysis estimated odds ratio (ORs) of risk for CKD were 1.42 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.31-1.54) for each 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5 ; 1.20 (95% CI: 1.14-1.26) for each 10 μg/m3 increase in PM10 ; 1.07 (95% CI: 1.05-1.09) for each 10 μg/m3 increase in NO2 ; 1.03 (95% CI: 1.02-1.03) for each 10 μg/m3 increase in NOX ; 1.07 (95% CI: 1.01-1.12) for each 1 ppb increase in SO2 ; 1.03 (95% CI: 1.00-1.05) for each 0.1 ppm increase in CO. Subgroup analysis showed that this effect varied by gender ratio, age, study design, exposure assessment method, and income level. Furthermore, PM2.5 , PM10 , and NO2 had negative effects on CKD even within the World Health Organization-recommended acceptable concentrations. Our results further confirmed the adverse effect of air pollution on the risk of CKD. These findings can contribute to enhance the awareness of the importance of reducing air pollution among public health officials and policymakers.

Abstract
Limited data have examined the association between air pollution and the risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). We aimed to investigate whether long-term exposure to air pollutants is related to the development of ESRD among patients with T2DM and CKD. A total of 1,738 patients with T2DM and CKD hospitalized in Peking University Third Hospital from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2021 were enrolled in this study. The outcome was defined as the occurrence of ESRD. Data on six air pollutants (PM2.5, PM10, CO, NO2, SO2, and O3) from 35 monitoring stations were obtained from the Beijing Municipal Ecological and Environmental Monitoring Center. Long-term exposure to air pollutants during the follow-up period was measured using the ordinary Kriging method. During a mean follow-up of 41 months, 98 patients developed ESRD. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that an increase of 10 μg/m3 in PM2.5 (odds ratio [OR] 1.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.03-1.36) and PM10 (OR 1.15, 95% CI 1.02-1.30) concentration were positively associated with ESRD. An increase of 1 mg/m3 in CO (2.80, 1.05-7.48) and an increase of 1 μg/m3 in SO2 (1.06, 1.00-1.13) concentration were also positively associated with ESRD. Apart from O3 and NO2, all the above air pollutants have additional predictive value for ESRD in patients with T2DM and CKD. The results of Bayesian kernel machine regression and the weighted quantile sum regression all showed that PM2.5 was the most important air pollutant. Backward stepwise logistic regression showed that PM2.5 was the only pollutant remaining in the prediction model. In patients with T2DM and CKD, long-term exposure to ambient PM2.5, PM10, CO, and SO2 was positively associated with the development of ESRD.

Abstract
Both air pollution and physical inactivity contribute to the increased risk of incident chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the detrimental effects of air pollution exposure could be augmented by an elevated intake of air pollutants during exercise. In the present study, we analyzed 367,978 participants who were CKD-free at baseline (2006-2010) based on the UK Biobank. Air pollutants included fine particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and nitrogen oxides (NOX). Physical activity (PA) was obtained by the self-reported questionnaire. Using Cox proportional hazards models, hazard ratios (HRs) for incident CKD related to air pollution, PA, and incident CKD were evaluated. During a median of 12.4 years of follow-up, 14,191 incident CKD events were documented. High PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and NOX increased CKD risks by 11 %, 15 %, 14 %, and 12 %, respectively, while moderate and high PA reduced CKD risks by 18 % and 22 %, respectively. Participants with high PA and low air pollution exposure had 29 %, 31 %, 30 %, and 30 % risks of incident CKD than those with low PA and high air pollution exposure for the four air pollutants, with multivariable-adjusted HRs of 0.71 (95 % confidence intervals [CI]: 0.65-0.76) for PM2.5, 0.69 (95 % CI: 0.64-0.75) for PM10, 0.70 (95 % CI: 0.64-0.75) for NO2, and 0.70 (95 % CI: 0.64-0.75) for NOX. No clear interactions were observed between each air pollutant exposure and PA (all P for interaction > 0.05). The findings that reducing air pollution exposure and increasing PA were both independently correlated with a diminished risk of incident CKD suggest that PA could be targeted to prevent CKD generally regardless of air pollution levels. Further research is needed in areas polluted moderately and severely to examine our findings.

Association of ambient PM 10 and PM 2.5 with coronary stenosis measured using selective coronary angiography. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 262:115338. [PMID: 37556955 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115338] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 07/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/04/2023] [Indexed: 08/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term ambient particulate matter (PM) exposure exerts detrimental effects on cardiovascular health. Evidence on the relation of chronically exposed ambient PM10 and PM2.5 with coronary stenosis remains lacking. Our aim was to investigate the association of PM10 and PM2.5 with coronary stenosis in patients undergoing coronary angiography. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study consisting of 7513 individuals who underwent coronary angiography in Fujian Province, China, from January 2019 to December 2021. We calculated a modified Gensini score (GS) to represent the degree of stenosis in coronary arteries by selective coronary angiography. We fitted linear regressions and logistic models to assess the association of PM10 and PM2.5 with coronary stenosis. We employed restricted cubic splines to describe the exposure-response curves. We performed mediation analyses to assess the potential mediators. RESULTS Long-term ambient PM10 and PM2.5 (prior three years average) exposure was significantly associated with the GS, with a breakpoint concentration of 47.5 μg/m3 and 25.8 μg/m3 for PM10 and PM2.5, respectively, above which we found a linear positive exposure-response relationship of ambient PM with GS. Each 10 µg /m3 increase in PM10 exposure (β: 4.81, 95 % CI: 0.44-9.19) and PM2.5 exposure [β: 10.50, 95 % CI: 3.14-17.86] were positively related to the GS. The adjusted odds ratio (OR) for each 10 µg/m3 increment in PM10 exposure on severe coronary stenosis was 1.33 (95 % CI: 1.04-1.76). Correspondingly, the adjusted OR for PM2.5 was 1.87 (95 % CI: 1.24-2.99). The mediation analysis indicated that the effect of PM10 on coronary stenosis may be partially mediated through total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen, and the effect of PM2.5 may be mediated in part by hemoglobin A1c. CONCLUSION Our study provides the first evidence that chronic ambient PM10 and PM2.5 exposure was associated with coronary stenosis assessed by GS in patients with suspected coronary artery disease and reveals its potential mediators.

Association of air pollution, genetic risk, and lifestyle with incident adult-onset asthma: A prospective cohort study. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 257:114922. [PMID: 37080133 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.114922] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2023] [Revised: 04/13/2023] [Accepted: 04/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous studies have explored the association of air pollution with asthma but have yielded conflicting results. The exact role of air pollution in the incidence of adult-onset asthma and whether this effect is modified by genetic risk, lifestyle, or their interaction remain uncertain. METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort study on 298,738 participants (aged 37-73 years) registered in the UK Biobank. Cox proportional hazard models were used to evaluate the association of air pollution, including particulate matter (PM2.5, PMcoarse, and PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and nitrogen oxides (NOx), with asthma incidence. We constructed genetic risk and lifestyle scores, assessed whether the impact of air pollution on adult-onset asthma risk was modified by genetic susceptibility or lifestyle factors, and evaluated the identified interactions. RESULTS We found that each interquartile range increase in annual concentrations of PM2.5, NO2, and NOx was related to 1.04 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01, 1.08), 1.04 (95% CI: 1.00, 1.08), and 1.03 (95% CI: 1.00, 1.06) times the risk of adult-onset asthma, respectively. The size of the effect of air pollution was greater among subpopulations with low genetic risk or unfavorable lifestyles. We also identified an additive interaction effect of air pollution with lifestyle factors, but not with genetic risk, on the risk of adult-onset asthma. CONCLUSION Our analyses show that air pollution increases the risk of adult-onset asthma, but that the size of the effect is modified by lifestyle and genetic risk. These findings emphasize the need for integrated interventions for environmental pollution by the government as well as adherence to healthy lifestyles to prevent adult-onset asthma.
