Clinical features of and risk factors for normoalbuminuric diabetic kidney disease in hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a retrospective cross-sectional study. BMC Endocr Disord 2021; 21:104. [PMID: 34022855 PMCID: PMC8141213 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-021-00769-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 05/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Normoalbuminuric diabetic kidney disease (NADKD) is a newly defined DKD, the clinical features and pathogenesis for which are still being understood. This study aimed to investigate the features and risk factors for NADKD in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted. The related clinical and laboratory data of patients with T2DM hospitalized between August 2012 and January 2020 were collected for statistical analysis. We classified the patients with T2DM into four groups on the basis of the presence or absence of albuminuria and reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Analysis of variance, the Kruskal-Wallis test, and the chi-square test were used to compare the groups. Binary logistic regression analyses with a forward stepwise method were performed to explore the risk factors for renal dysfunction in hospitalized patients with normoalbuminuric T2DM. RESULTS Among the 1620 patients evaluated, 500 (30.9%) had DKD, of which 9% had NADKD. The prevalence of stroke, cardiovascular events, carotid plaque, and peripheral arterial disease in NADKD was significantly higher than in a non-DKD control group (normoalbuminuric T2DM patients with eGFR of ≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2). Regression analyses revealed that three significant independent factors were associated with NADKD: age (OR = 1.089, confidence interval [CI] 95% [1.055-1.123], p < 0.001), previous use of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors (RASIs; OR = 2.330, CI 95% [1.212-4.481], p = 0.011), and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c; OR = 0.839, CI 95% [0.716-0.983], p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS NADKD is mainly associated with macrovascular rather than microvascular complications. NADKD is more common in patients with normoalbuminuric T2DM with older age, previous use of RASIs, and good glycemic control.

The role of pulse pressure in navigating the paradigm of chronic kidney disease progression in type 2 diabetes mellitus. J Nephrol 2021; 34:1429-1444. [PMID: 33492590 DOI: 10.1007/s40620-020-00954-3] [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: 06/03/2020] [Accepted: 12/27/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Arterial stiffness is a risk factor for chronic kidney disease progression (CKD). Pulse pressure is a surrogate marker of arterial stiffness. It is unclear if pulse pressure predicts CKD progression in type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS This was prospective study involving 1494 patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 15 ml/min/1.73 m2. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity was measured using applanation tonometry. Pulse pressure was calculated as difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressures. CKD progression was defined as worsening of eGFR categories (stage 1, ≥ 90 ml/min/1.73 m2; stage 2, 60-89 ml/min/1.73 m2; stage 3a, 45-59 ml/min/1.73 m2; stage 3b, 30-44 ml/min/1.73 m2; stage 4; 15-29 ml/min/1.73 m2; and stage 5, < 15 ml/min/1.73 m2) with ≥ 25% decrease in eGFR from baseline. RESULTS After follow-up of up to 6 years, CKD progression occurred in 33.5% of subjects. Subjects in 2nd, 3rd and 4th quartiles of peripheral pulse pressure experienced higher risk of CKD progression with unadjusted hazard ratios (HRs) 1.55 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.13-2.11; p = 0.006], 2.58 (1.93-3.45; p < 0.001) and 3.41 (2.58-4.52; p < 0.001). In the fully adjusted model, the association for 2nd, 3rd and 4th quartiles remained with HRs 1.40 (1.02-1.93; p = 0.038), 1.87 (1.37-2.56; p < 0.001) and 1.75 (1.25-2.44; p = 0.001) respectively. Similarly, 2nd, 3rd and 4th quartiles of aortic pulse pressure were associated with higher hazards of CKD progression with HRs 1.73 (1.25-2.40; p = 0.001), 1.65 (1.18-2.29; p = 0.003) and 1.81 (1.26-2.60; p = 0.001). Increasing urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio accounted for 44.0% of the association between peripheral pulse pressure and CKD progression. CONCLUSIONS Individuals with high pulse pressure were more susceptible to deterioration of renal function. Pulse pressure could potentially be incorporated in clinical practice as an inexpensive and readily available biomarker of renal decline in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Graphic abstract.

Abstract
Background Evidence regarding the relationship between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and arterial stiffness is limited, and the data analysis is not sufficient to clarify the true relationship between the two. We aimed to investigate the relationship between eGFR and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) in Japanese. Methods The present study was a cross-sectional study. Nine hundred twelve Japanese men and women, aging 24—84 years old, received a health medical check-up program including the results from baPWV inspection and various standardized questionnaires in a health examination center in Japan. The main outcome measures included eGFR, baPWV, fatty liver and postmenopausal status. Abdominal ultrasonography was used to diagnose fatty liver. Postmenopausal state was defined as beginning 1 year after the cessation of menses. Results The average age of the 912 selected participants was 51.5 ± 9.6 years old, and about 57.6% of them were male. The participants’ eGFR distribution was median 69.29 (min 39, max 122.28). The results of multivariate linear regression showed eGFR was not independently associated with baPWV after adjusting potential confounders (β = − 1.11, 95%CI -2.25 to 0.03), this is inconsistent with the result of eGFR (quartile) as a categorical variable (p for trend was 0.038). A non-linear relationship was detected between eGFR and baPWV, whose point was 77.05. The effect sizes and the confidence intervals of the left and right sides of inflection point were − 2.80 (− 4.41 to − 1.19) and 1.84 (− 0.50, 4.17), respectively. Subgroup analysis showed, the change in the elderly population is more pronounced (P for interaction = 0.018; − 2.83 with ≤60 year vs − 6.12 with > 60 year). The same trend was also seen in hypertensive people (P for interaction = 0.018; − 4.55 with hypertension vs − 0.82 with non-hypertension). Conclusion The relationship between eGFR and baPWV is non-linear. eGFR was negatively related to baPWV when eGFR is less than 77.05.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is a cornerstone in cardiovascular disease prevention and hypertension treatment. The relevance of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) has been widely confirmed for both increasing the accuracy of blood pressure (BP) measurements, particularly in pharmacological trials, and focusing on 24 h BP prognostic parameters. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of canrenone addition on ambulatory BP in uncontrolled hypertensive patients already treated with the highest tolerated dose of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) antagonists plus hydrochlorothiazide (HCT). METHODS ABPM was performed at baseline and after 3 months of combination therapy in 158 outpatients with stage 1 or 2 hypertension who were randomized to add canrenone (50 or 100 mg) to the pre-existing therapy with ACE inhibitors or AT1R antagonists plus HCT. Twenty-four-hour systolic and diastolic BPs were considered normalized when the values were <130 and <80 mmHg, respectively. RESULTS The addition of canrenone was associated with a reduction in systolic and diastolic BPs (24 h and daytime and nighttime; P<0.001), mean arterial pressures (P<0.001), and pulse pressures (P<0.01). The Δ 24 h systolic/diastolic BPs were -13.5±11.2/-8±8 mmHg and -16.1±13.5/-11.2±8.3 mmHg (50 and 100 mg/day, respectively). In the 50 mg arm, the 24 h systolic and diastolic BPs were normalized in 67.5% and 74% of the patients, respectively, and in 61.6% and 68.5% of the patients in the 100 mg arm, respectively (P<0.05; P= not significant for 50 vs 100 mg). The percentage of patients whose nocturnal decrease was >10% with respect to diurnal values did not change during combination therapy. CONCLUSION Canrenone addition to ACE inhibitors or AT1R antagonists plus HCT was associated with a significant reduction of 24 h BP and to an increased number of patients meeting 24 h ABPM targets in a clinical setting of uncontrolled stage 1 or 2 hypertension.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship between ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) and other parameters derived from ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitoring, including dipping status, in patients with grade 1/grade 2 hypertension. METHODS This retrospective analysis included baseline data from Chinese outpatients enrolled into a previous study, who had clinic diastolic BP of 90-109 mmHg and systolic BP <180 mmHg, had undergone 24-h ambulatory BP monitoring and routine blood chemistry investigations, and had estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) data. RESULTS Out of 120 patients screened, 87 were included. No significant difference in 24-h AASI was found between dippers and nondippers. The 24-h AASI significantly correlated with age, systolic BP and pulse pressure, and inversely correlated with 24-h diastolic BP variation and eGFR. In dippers and nondippers, AASI correlated with daytime pulse pressure, daytime diastolic BP variation and eGFR; in nondippers, AASI also correlated with 24-h systolic BP and 24-h pulse pressure. The 24-h AASI was significantly associated with 24-h pulse pressure and daytime pulse pressure. CONCLUSION In patients with grade 1/grade 2 essential hypertension, AASI shows a significant correlation with ambulatory pulse pressure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the relationship between ambulatory blood pressure and arterial atherosclerosis and provide simple and easy reference indicators for the prediction, prevention and prognosis of cardiovascular events in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. METHOD This prospective study consecutively collected clinical data of 114 ESRD hospitalized patients in the Department of Nephrology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University during August 2012 to December 2012. The data included laboratory data, the ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), carotid ultrasound, two-dimensional echocardiography and the prognosis scores of the death risk. RESULTS (1) A series of ABPM parameters were closely associated with atherosclerosis (p ≤ 0.05). Ambulatory Arterial Stiffness Index (AASI) was the most representative parameter of ABPM and also the best indicator for atherosclerosis (logistic regression analysis, p = 0.005). (2) AASI was a comprehensive index of atherosclerosis (p < 0.001), which was associated with the increase of left ventricular diameter (p = 0.028) and the risk of death (p < 0.001). The independent risk factors of AASI were the growth of the age (p < 0.001), elevated serum fibrinogen (p = 0.009) and reduced serum albumin (p = 0.022). CONCLUSION AASI, as the representative of ABPM parameters, related well to atherosclerosis, which implied a broader application of ABPM in ESRD patients.

Abstract
Background The ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) can be used to predict cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in hypertensive patients. However, data on AASI in Chinese patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is not available. Methods This cross-sectional study enrolled 583 CKD patients. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to evaluate the relationship between AASI and renal function and parameters of cardiovascular injury. Results Patients with a higher AASI had a higher systolic blood pressure, a lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), a higher serum cystatin C, a higher left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT). Univariate analyses showed that AASI was positively correlated with serum cystatin C (r=0.296, P < 0.001), serum creatinine (r=0.182, P < 0.001), and LVMI (r = 0.205, P < 0.001) and negatively correlated with the eGFR (r = –0.200, P < 0.001). Multivariate analyses revealed that serum cystatin C, eGFR, serum creatinine and LVMI were independently correlated with AASI. Conclusions These data suggest that AASI was closely correlated with renal function and parameters of cardiovascular injury in Chinese CKD patients. Good quality, long-term, large longitudinal trials to validate the role of AASI in clinical practice for Chinese CKD patients.
