Abstract
Purpose The International IgA Nephropathy Prediction Tool (IIgAN-PT) can predict the risk of End-stage renal disease (ESRD) or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline ≥ 50% for adult IgAN patients. Considering the differential progression between older adult and adult patients, this study aims to externally validate its performance in the older adult cohort. Patients and Methods We analyzed 165 IgAN patients aged 60 and above from six medical centers, categorizing them by their predicted risk. The primary outcome was a ≥50% reduction in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) or kidney failure. Evaluation of both models involved concordance statistics (C-statistics), time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, Kaplan-Meier survival curves, and calibration plots. Comparative reclassification was conducted using net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI). Results The study included 165 Chinese patients (median age 64, 60% male), with a median follow-up of 5.1 years. Of these, 21% reached the primary outcome. Both models with or without race demonstrated good discrimination (C-statistics 0.788 and 0.790, respectively). Survival curves for risk groups were well-separated. The full model without race more accurately predicted 5-year risks, whereas the full model with race tended to overestimate risks after 3 years. No significant reclassification improvement was noted in the full model without race (NRI 0.09, 95% CI: -0.27 to 0.34; IDI 0.003, 95% CI: -0.009 to 0.019). Conclusion : Both models exhibited excellent discrimination among older adult IgAN patients. The full model without race demonstrated superior calibration in predicting the 5-year risk.

[PMID: 34013043 PMCID: PMC8111477 DOI: 10.1515/med-2021-0284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2020] [Revised: 03/18/2021] [Accepted: 04/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, we focused on the influencing factors of renal anaemia in patients with IgA nephropathy and constructed a nomogram model. We divided 462 patients with IgA nephropathy diagnosed by renal biopsy into anaemic and non-anaemic groups. Then, the influencing factors of renal anaemia in patients with IgA nephropathy were analysed by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and multivariable logistic regression, and a nomogram model for predicting renal anaemia was established. Eventually, nine variables were obtained, which are easy to apply clinically. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and precision-recall (PR) curve reached 0.835 and 0.676, respectively, and the C-index reached 0.848. The calibration plot showed that the model had good discrimination, accuracy, and diagnostic efficacy. In addition, the C-index of the model following internal validation reached 0.823. Decision curve analysis suggested that the model had a certain degree of clinical significance. This new nomogram model of renal anaemia combines the basic information, laboratory findings, and renal biopsy results of patients with IgA nephropathy, providing important guidance for predicting and clinically intervening in renal anaemia.
