Abstract
OBJECTIVE Smoking has been suggested as a modifiable and cardiovascular risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although long-term smoking has been associated with CKD, the potential relationship between its metabolite hydroxycotinine and CKD has not been clarified. METHODS A total of 8,544 participants aged 20 years and above from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2017 - March 2020 were enrolled in our study. CKD was defined by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/(min*1.73 m2). Serum hydroxycotinine was measured by an isotope-dilution high-performance liquid chromatography/atmospheric pressure chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometric (ID HPLC-APCI MS/MS) method with a lower limit of detections (LLOD) at 0.015 ng/mL. The non-linear relationship was explored with restricted cubic splines (RCS). Pearson's correlation coefficient and a multivariate logistic regression model were used for correlation analysis. RESULTS Serum hydroxycotinine and eGFR were negatively correlated in both non-CKD group (r= -0.05, p < 0.001) and CKD group (r= -0.04, p < 0.001). After serum hydoxycotinine dichotominzed with LLOD, serum hydroxycotinine ≥ 0.015 ng/mL was negatively correlated with eGFR not only in non-CKD group (r = -0.05, p < 0.001) but also in CKD group (r = -0.09, p < 0.001). After adjusting for comprehensive confounders, results from the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that participants with serum hydroxycotinine ≥ 0.015 ng/mL had increased odds of CKD (OR = 1.505, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Serum hydroxycotinine might be positively associated with CKD. Further study is warranted to find the right concentration of hydroxycotinine to measure the CKD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We conducted a community-based cohort study to predict the 3-year occurrence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) among population aged ≥60 years. METHOD Participants were selected from two communities through randomized cluster sampling in Jiading District of Shanghai, China. The two communities were randomly divided into a development cohort (n = 12012) and a validation cohort (n = 6248) with a 3-year follow-up. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent predictors. A nomogram was established to predict the occurrence of CKD within 3 years. The area under the curve (AUC), the calibration curve and decision curve analysis (DCA) curve were used to evaluate the model. RESULT At baseline, participants in development cohort and validation cohort were with the mean age of 68.24 ± 5.87 and 67.68 ± 5.26 years old, respectively. During 3 years, 1516 (12.6%) and 544 (8.9%) new cases developed CKD in the development and validation cohorts, respectively. Nine variables (age, systolic blood pressure, body mass index, exercise, previous hypertension, triglycerides, fasting plasma glucose, glycated hemoglobin and serum creatinine) were included in the prediction model. The AUC value was 0.742 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.728-0.756] in the development cohort and 0.881(95%CI, 0.867-0.895) in the validation cohort, respectively. The calibration curves and DCA curves demonstrate an effective predictive model. CONCLUSION Our nomogram model is a simple, reasonable and reliable tool for predicting the risk of 3-year CKD in community-dwelling elderly people, which is helpful for timely intervention and reducing the incidence of CKD.

[PMID: 38425087 PMCID: PMC10911098 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2024.2324079] [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: 12/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD) or haemodyalisis (PD) appear to be less physically active than healthy persons, a situation that could lead to reductions in quality of life. The aim of the present study was to assess and compare physical activity and health-related quality of life in renal patients on HD and PD programs. METHODS In May 2020, 130 patients (106 HD and 24 PD) were enrolled in a study of chronic dialysis programs. All participants received a questionnaire containing information on demographics, treatment, and co-morbidities. Physical activity was assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) short form, and quality of life was measured using the Kidney Disease Quality of Life-Short Form 12 (KDQOL-SF-12) questionnaire comprising mental (MCS) and physical components (PCS). Non-parametric statistical tests were executed with 0.05 as the level of significance. RESULTS The physical activity of patients treated in both HD and PD programs could be considered as low, without a statistically significant difference between the two modalities. For the quality of life measures, we found a significant (p = .004) difference regarding Physical Component Summary (PCS) scores, with higher PCS scores in patients treated in the PD programme compared to HD. Furthermore, higher physical activity levels were associated with better quality of life parameters in both groups. CONCLUSION This study confirms the importance of physical activity among dialysis patients with ESKD, suggesting that greater activity could be associated with a better quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic dysfunction and obesity are closely related to chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, studies on the relationship between various metabolic syndrome-body mass index (MetS-BMI) phenotypes and the risk of CKD in the Chinese population have not yet been explored. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) 2015 were analyzed in this study. This study enrolled 12,054 participants. Participants were divided into six distinct groups according to their MetS-BMI status. Across the different MetS-BMI groups, the odd ratios (ORs) for CKD were determined using multivariable logistic regression models. RESULTS The prevalence of CKD was higher in metabolically unhealthy groups than in the corresponding healthy groups. Moreover, the fully adjusted model showed that all metabolically unhealthy individuals had an increased risk of developing CKD compared to the metabolically healthy normal weight group (OR = 1.62, p = 0.002 for the metabolically unhealthy normal weight group; OR = 1.55, p < 0.001 for the metabolically unhealthy overweight group; and OR = 1.77, p < 0.001 for the metabolically unhealthy obesity group. CONCLUSIONS This study is the first to evaluate the relationship between the MetS-BMI phenotype and renal prognosis in the Chinese population. Individuals with normal weights are at different risk of developing CKD depending on their different metabolic phenotypes.

Abstract
Cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality is high in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Most patients reveal a high prevalence of CV risk factors such as diabetes or arterial hypertension and many have manifest cardiovascular disease (CVD), such as coronary artery disease and chronic heart failure with an increased risk of clinical events including sudden cardiac death. Diabetes mellitus and hypertension contribute to the development of CKD and the prevalence of CKD is in the range of 20-65% in diabetic and 30-50% in hypertensive patients. Therefore, prevention and optimal treatment of CV risk factors and comorbidities are key strategies to reduce CV risk and improve survival in CKD. Beyond common CV risk factors, patients with CKD are often physically inactive and have low physical function leading to subsequent frailty with muscle fatigue and weakness, sarcopenia and increased risk of falling. Consequently, the economic health burden of CKD is high, requiring feasible strategies to counteract this vicious cycle. Regular physical activity and exercise training (ET) have been shown to be effective in improving risk factors, reducing CVD and reducing frailty and falls. Nonetheless, combining ET and a healthy lifestyle with pharmacological treatment is not frequently applied in clinical practice. For that reason, this Clinical Consensus Statement reviews the current literature and provides evidence-based data regarding the role of ET in reducing CV and overall burden in patients with CKD. The aim is to increase awareness among cardiologists, nephrologists, and healthcare professionals of the potential of exercise therapy in order to encourage implementation of ET in clinical practice, eventually reducing CV risk and disease, as well as reducing frailty in patients with CKD G3-G5D.

Abstract
We aimed to investigate the association between the dietary zinc intake and the risk of albuminuria, low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the US general population. This study was a cross-sectional study utilizing the data from the 2003-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Albuminuria was defined as urinary albumin:creatinine ratio (ACR) > 30 mg/g. Low eGFR was defined as an eGFR of less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. CKD is characterized by albuminuria or low eGFR. Multivariate logistic regression analysis, subgroup analyses, interaction tests, and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis were performed in this study. For 37,195 enrolled participants in this study, the mean dietary zinc intake was 11.85 ± 0.07 mg/day, and the rate of albuminuria, low eGFR, and CKD was 9.37%, 6.68%, and 14.10%, respectively. Participants with a higher dietary zinc intake showed a lower risk of albuminuria, low eGFR, and CKD. In the fully adjusted model, we found that participants in the highest dietary zinc intake quartile had 26% lower odds of the rate of CKD than those in quartile 1. Subgroup analyses showed that dietary zinc intake was positively associated with the risk of low eGFR in participants who were now smokers. The potential nonlinear relationship between dietary zinc intake and the risk of CKD and albuminuria was also revealed. Higher dietary zinc intake was significantly associated with a lower likelihood of CKD, which might be helpful in kidney function protection among the general population.

Prospective study on the joint effect of persistent organic pollutants and glucose metabolism on chronic kidney disease: Modifying effects of lifestyle interventions. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 951:175694. [PMID: 39173765 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.175694] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2024] [Revised: 07/24/2024] [Accepted: 08/20/2024] [Indexed: 08/24/2024]
Abstract
There is no evidence on the associations between persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and the incidence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the Chinese rural population. We aimed to investigate the individual and mixed effects of 22 POPs on the prevalence and incidence of CKD, and the joint effects of POPs and abnormal glucose metabolism as well as the modification effects of healthy lifestyle on these associations. A total of 2775 subjects, including 925 subjects with normal plasma glucose (NPG) and 925 subjects with prediabetes (PDM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), were enrolled from the Henan Rural Cohort Study. Logistic regression and quantile g-computation were performed to assess the individual and mixed effects of POPs on the risk of CKD. Joint effects of POPs and abnormal glucose metabolism status, as well as the modification effects of lifestyle on CKD were assessed. After 3-year follow-up, an increment of ln-o,p'-DDT was related to an elevated risk of CKD prevalence. Positive associations of p,p'-DDE and β-BHC with CKD incidence were observed (P < 0.05). In addition, participants with high levels of ∑POPs were associated elevated incidence risk of CKD (OR: 1.217, 95%CI: 1.008-1.469). One quartile increase in POPs mixture was associated with the increased incidence of CKD among T2DM patients (P < 0.05). Further, a higher risk of CKD was observed among PDM and T2DM patients with high levels of o,p'-DDT, p,p'-DDE, β-BHC, and ∑POPs than NPG subjects with low levels of pollutants. In addition, interactive effects of ∑POPs and lifestyle score on CKD incidence were found. Individual and mixed exposure to POPs increased the prevalence and incidence of CKD, and glucose metabolic status exacerbated the risk of CKD resulting from such exposures. Further, the modifying effects of lifestyle were observed, highlighting the importance of precision prevention for high-risk CKD population and healthy lifestyle intervention measures.

Abstract
Objective To examine the association of left atrial (LA) function with incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) and assess the clinical utility of adding LA function to a CKD risk prediction equation. Patients and Methods We included 4002 Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study participants without prevalent CKD (mean ± SD age, 75±5 years; 58% female, 18% Black). Left atrial function (reservoir, conduit, and contractile strain) was evaluated by 2D-echocardiograms on 2011 to 2013. Chronic kidney disease was defined as greater than 25% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate of less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, end-stage kidney disease, or hospital records. Cox proportional hazards models were used. Risk prediction and decision curve analyses evaluated 5-year CKD risk by diabetes status. Results Median follow-up was 7.2 years, and 598 participants developed incident CKD. Incidence rate for CKD was 2.29 per 100 person-years. After multivariable adjustments, the lowest quintile of LA reservoir, conduit, and contractile strain (vs highest quintile) had a higher risk of CKD (hazard ratios [95% CIs]: 1.94 [1.42-2.64], 1.62 [1.19-2.20], and 1.49 [1.12-1.99]). Adding LA reservoir strain to the CKD risk prediction equation variables increased the C-index by 0.026 (95% CI: 0.005-0.051) and 0.031 (95% CI: 0.006-0.058) in participants without and with diabetes, respectively. Decision curve analysis found the model with LA reservoir strain had a higher net benefit than the model with CKD risk prediction equation variables alone. Conclusion Lower LA function is independently associated with incident CKD. Adding LA function to the CKD risk prediction enhances prediction and yields a higher clinical net benefit. These findings suggest that impaired LA function may be a novel risk factor for CKD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cigarette smoking is one of the most important life-modifiable risk factors for CVD events. The effect on CKD progression caused by smoking remained uncertain, while the effect on CVD had been established. METHOD The study population included participants from the specific health check and specific health guidance, an annual health check-up for all inhabitants of Japan who were aged between 40 and 74 years. 149,260 subjects (male, 37.1%; female, 62.9%) were included in this analysis. RESULTS The relationship between smoking status along with new-onset proteinuria and eGFR deterioration more than 15 mL/min/1.73 m2 was examined. Median observation periods were 1427 days [738, 1813] in males and 1437 days [729, 1816] in females. In male participants, the strongest factor upon kidney dysfunction was new-onset proteinuria (1.41 [1.31 1.51], P < 0.001). The second strongest factor on kidney deterioration was smoking (1.24 [1.16 1.31], P < 0.001). In female participants, strongest factor upon kidney dysfunction was smoking (1.27 [1.16-1.39], P < 0.001). The second strongest factor on kidney deterioration was new-onset proteinuria (1.26 [1.17 1.36], P < 0.001). To reveal the relationship of effects from new-onset proteinuria and smoking on the kidney function, the participants were divided into four groups with and without new-onset proteinuria and smoking. The group with both proteinuria and smoking had significantly worst renal prognosis (P for trend < 0.001). CONCLUSION Large longitudinal observation study revealed smoking has an evil effect on the progression of CKD. This evil effect could be observed in CKD patients with proteinuria as well as in general population without new-onset proteinuria.

Lifestyle factors and their relative contributions to longitudinal progression of cardio-renal-metabolic multimorbidity: a prospective cohort study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2024; 23:265. [PMID: 39026309 PMCID: PMC11264843 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-024-02347-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of lifestyle factors and their relative contributions to the development and mortality of cardio-renal-metabolic multimorbidity (CRMM) remains unclear. METHODS A study was conducted with 357,554 UK Biobank participants. CRMM was defined as the coexistence of two or three cardio-renal-metabolic diseases (CRMDs), including cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes (T2D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The prospective study examined the associations of individual and combined lifestyle scores (diet, alcohol consumption, smoking, physical activity, sedentary behavior, sleep duration and social connection) with longitudinal progression from healthy to first cardio-renal-metabolic disease (FCRMD), then to CRMM, and ultimately to death, using a multistate model. Subsequently, quantile G-computation was employed to assess the relative contribution of each lifestyle factor. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 13.62 years, lifestyle played crucial role in all transitions from healthy to FCRMD, then to CRMM, and ultimately to death. The hazard ratios (95% CIs) per score increase were 0.91 (0.90, 0.91) and 0.90 (0.89, 0.91) for healthy to FCRMD, and for FCRMD to CRMM, and 0.84 (0.83, 0.86), 0.87 (0.86, 0.89), and 0.90 (0.88, 0.93) for mortality risk from healthy, FCRMD, and CRMM, respectively. Among the seven factors, smoking status contributed to high proportions for the whole disease progression, accounting for 19.88-38.10%. High-risk diet contributed the largest proportion to the risk of transition from FCRMD to CRMM, with 22.53%. Less-frequent social connection contributed the largest proportion to the risk of transition from FCRMD to death, with 28.81%. When we further consider the disease-specific transitions, we find that lifestyle scores had slightly stronger associations with development to T2D than to CVD or CKD. CONCLUSIONS Our study indicates that a healthy lifestyle may have a protective effect throughout the longitudinal progression of CRMM, informing more effective management and treatment. Smoking status, diet, and social connection played pivotal roles in specific disease transitions.

Impact of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and fibrosis on mortality and kidney outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease: A multi-cohort longitudinal study. Diabetes Obes Metab 2024. [PMID: 39021330 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15758] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2024] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
AIM To evaluate the impact of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) presence and fibrosis risk on adverse outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. METHODS Data were sourced from two longitudinal cohorts: 1172 patients from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) and 326 patients from the kidney biopsy cohort at the West China Hospital of Sichuan University. Cox regression estimated hazard ratios (HRs) for NAFLD and liver fibrosis concerning adverse clinical outcomes. Subsequently, a two-sample Mendelian randomization study using genome-wide association study statistics explored NAFLD's potential causal link to cardio-cerebrovascular events. RESULTS In the NHANES cohort, NAFLD stood as an independent risk factor for various outcomes: overall mortality [HR 1.53 (95% confidence interval, CI 1.21-1.95)], mortality because of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases [HR 1.63 (95% CI 1.12-2.37)], heart disease [HR 1.58 (95% CI 1.00-2.49)], and cerebrovascular disease [HR 3.95 (95% CI 1.48-10.55)]. Notably, advanced liver fibrosis, identified by a fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) score >2.67, exhibited associations with overall mortality, cardio-cerebrovascular disease mortality and heart disease mortality. Within the kidney biopsy cohort, NAFLD correlated with future end-stage kidney disease [ESKD; HR 2.17 (95% CI 1.41-3.34)], while elevated FIB-4 or NAFLD Fibrosis Scores predicted future ESKD, following full adjustment. Liver fibrosis was positively correlated with renal interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy in biopsies. Further Mendelian randomization analysis supported a causal relationship between NAFLD and cardio-cerebrovascular events. CONCLUSIONS In patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease, the NAFLD presence and elevated FIB-4 scores link to heightened mortality risk and ESKD susceptibility. Moreover, NAFLD shows a causal relationship with cardio-cerebrovascular events.

The U-shape relationship between insulin resistance-related indexes and chronic kidney disease: a retrospective cohort study from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007-2016. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2024; 16:168. [PMID: 39014458 PMCID: PMC11253359 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-024-01408-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is ongoing debate on the correlation between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and insulin resistance (IR)-related indices. Our objective was to explore the prognostic ability of IR-related indexes for the prevalence of CKD, as well as the mortality from all causes and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in CKD patients. METHODS The data used in this study came from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Binary logistic regression analysis, Cox proportional hazards model, and restricted cubic spline (RCS) were used to analyze the relationship between IR-related indexes, including metabolic score of IR (METS-IR), homeostatic model assessment for IR (HOMA-IR), triglyceride glucose index (TyG), triglyceride glucose-waist-to-height ratio (TyG-WHtR), triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI), with CKD and its all-cause mortality and CVD mortality. Subgroup analysis was performed to test the stability of the results. Finally, the predictive power of IR-related indexes for CKD was tested by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULTS Among the recruited 10,660 participants, 15.42% were CKD patients. All IR-related indexes were found to be nonlinearly correlated to the prevalence of CKD in the study. When the TyG index was higher than 9.05, it was positively associated with CKD (OR: 1.77, 95% CI 1.44-2.18). Moreover, increased TyG-WHtR level was correlated with a greater prevalence of CKD when it was higher than 4.3 (OR: 1.31, 95% CI 1.19-1.45). Other IR-related indexes (METS-IR, HOMA-IR, and TyG-BMI) showed fewer notable correlations with CKD. The association of IR-related indexes and the prevalence of CKD remained consistent in most subgroups (P for interactions > 0.05). TyG-WHtR was also the predictor of all-cause mortality in CKD patients (HR: 1.34, 95% CI 1.14-1.58), while other IR-related indexes were not correlated with the all-cause mortality or CVD mortality in CKD patients (P > 0.05). Otherwise, ROC curves showed that TyG-WHtR had more robust diagnostic efficacy than other IR-related indexes (METS-IR, HOMA-IR, TyG, and TyG-BMI) in predicting CKD (area under the curve: 0.630, 95% CI 0.615-0.644). CONCLUSIONS IR-related biomarkers (METS-IR, HOMA-IR, TyG, and TyG-BMI) were positively correlated with the prevalence of CKD. Moreover, TyG-WHtR enhanced CKD and its all-cause mortality prediction. In patients with elevated levels of IR-related indexes, the early detection and intervention of IR may reduce the occurrence of CKD and the prognosis of CKD patients.

Abstract
In recent years, significant progress has been achieved in comprehending the impact of alcohol consumption on adverse health outcomes. However, the quality of evidence remains limited. Our objective was to conduct a prospective study examining the relationship between different types of alcoholic beverages and the risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and chronic kidney disease (CKD), and identifying the thresholds of safe dose stratified by sex using data from the UK Biobank. 502,490 participants were enrolled. These participants were initially registered between 2006 and 2010, and underwent reassessment between 2012 and 2013. All participants completed a detailed questionnaire on their alcohol consumption, including total alcohol consumption yesterday, weekly consumption of red wine, champagne plus white wine, beer, spirits, and fortified wine. All-cause mortality and the incidence of CVD and CKD were considered as the primary outcomes. 2852 participants reported CKD during a median follow-up period of 11.94 years, while 79,958 participants reported CVD over a median follow-up period of 11.35 years. Additionally, 18,923 participants died over a median follow-up period of 11.89 years. After adjusting for variables such as age, sex, education level, smoking status, diet score, and exercise score, total alcohol consumption showed a U-shaped relationship with the risk of CVD and all-cause mortality, but showed an inverse association with the risk of CKD. Upon further classification of alcoholic beverages, our analysis revealed that red wine, champagne plus white wine, beer, spirits, and fortified wine presented a U-shaped relationship with the risk of all-cause mortality and CKD. However, spirits were positively associated with the risk of CVD, only red wine, champagne plus white wine, beer, and fortified wine showed a U-shaped relationship with the risk of CVD. The safe doses of total alcohol consumption should be < 11 g/d for males and < 10 for females, red wine consumption should be < 7 glasses/week for males and < 6 for females, champagne plus white wine consumption should be < 5 glasses/week, and fortified wine consumption should be < 4 glasses/week. Red wine, champagne plus white wine, beer, and fortified wine below the corresponding thresholds of safe dose in our analysis were significantly associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality, CVD, and CKD. And these alcoholic beverages under safe doses exhibited a protective effect against conditions like diabetes, depression, dementia, epilepsy, liver cirrhosis, and other digestive diseases, while didn't increase the risk of cancer.

Abstract
Exposure to organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) has been reported to be associated with renal impairment and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Nevertheless, the research results thus far have exhibited inconsistency, and the effect of lifestyle on their association is not clear. In this study, we assessed the correlation between serum OCPs/PCBs and CKD and renal function indicators including estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) among 1721 Chinese adults. In order to further investigate the potential impact of lifestyle, we conducted joint associations of lifestyle and OCPs/PCBs on CKD. We found a negative correlation between p,p'-DDE and eGFR, while logistic regression results showed a positive correlation between PCB-153 and CKD (OR, 1.92; 95% CI, 1.21, 3.06). Quantile g-computation regression analyses showed that the association between co-exposure to OCPs/PCBs and CKD was not significant, but p,p'-DDE and PCB-153 were the main contributors to the negative and positive co-exposure effects of eGFR and CKD, respectively, which is consistent with the regression results. Participants with both relatively high PCB-153 exposure and an unhealthy lifestyle had the highest risk of CKD, in the joint association analysis. The observed associations were generally supported by the FAS-eGFR method. Our research findings suggest that exposure to OCPs/PCBs may be associated with decreased eGFR and increased prevalence of CKD in humans, and a healthy lifestyle can to some extent alleviate the adverse association between PCB-153 exposure and CKD.

Abstract
Digital health is increasingly recognized for its value to enhance patient care and clinical care processes. People with chronic kidney disease often find dietary self-management challenging. There is promising evidence that digital health interventions can support people with chronic kidney disease to self-manage their diet, by providing more frequent access to nutritional information and dietitians and by facilitating regular monitoring and feedback. There is some emerging evidence of the impact of digital interventions in chronic kidney disease; however, more research is needed to provide meaningful interpretation of how digital interventions can enhance current practice. Importantly, a number of factors need to be considered when designing, developing, implementing, and evaluating the impact of digital interventions. Consideration of the nutrition service and patients' needs, motivation and digital literacy, type of digital intervention, and the ability to embed the digital intervention into current care processes are critical. This paper overviews the current literature on digital health and self-management, factors to consider when embedding digital interventions and platforms into nutrition care and practical considerations for designing and implementing digital health interventions to enhance the nutritional care of people with chronic kidney disease.

[PMID: 38909935 DOI: 10.1053/j.ajkd.2024.04.011] [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: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024]
Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE Although smoking is a recognized risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD), the relationship between the time smoking is initiated after awakening each day and CKD remains largely unstudied. This study examined the association between this timing and the risk of CKD, and the potential interactions of smoking timing with other risk factors for the occurrence of CKD. STUDY DESIGN Observational cohort study. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS A total of 32,776 participants in the UK Biobank with complete data on the time from waking to the first cigarette and free of prevalent CKD were included. EXPOSURE Time from waking to the first cigarette. OUTCOME Incident CKD cases. ANALYTICAL APPROACH Cox proportional hazards regression was used to investigate the associations between the time smoking is initiated each day and the risk of CKD. The potential interactions of smoking timing with risk factors in relationship to CKD risk were assessed on both multiplicative and additive scales. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 12 years, 940 incident CKD cases occurred. Shorter durations of time from waking to the first cigarette were associated with a higher risk of incident CKD (P trend=0.01). Compared with>120 minutes, the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) associated with smoking timing was 1.28 (95% CI, 0.92-1.80) for 61-120 minutes, 1.48 (95% CI, 1.11-1.96) for 30-60 minutes, 1.36 (95% CI, 1.01-1.88) for 5-15 minutes, and 1.70 (95% CI, 1.22-2.37) for<5 minutes, respectively. Furthermore, there was a significant additive interaction and multiplicative interactions between the timing of smoking and a healthy diet score (P for additive interaction=0.01; P for multiplicative interaction = 0.004). LIMITATIONS Generalizability, possible residual confounding, limiting causal inference. CONCLUSIONS These findings reveal a significant association between the shorter time from waking to the first cigarette and a higher CKD risk. The magnitude of these associations was greater in the setting of an unhealthy diet. PLAIN-LANGUAGE SUMMARY This study explored the association of the daily timing of first cigarette smoking and the occurrence of kidney disease. Further, we addressed whether this association was influenced by the quality of the diet. The study found that smoking very soon after waking, especially when combined with a poorer quality diet, was associated with a significantly increased risk of developing chronic kidney disease. This research emphasizes the value of healthier lifestyle choices for kidney health.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2024; 15:1403998. [PMID: 38952392 PMCID: PMC11215116 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2024.1403998] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction There is limited information about the relationship between physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviors in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Therefore, this study aims to explore the associations of accelerometer-measured PA and sedentary behaviors with CKD. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in the 2003-2004 and 2005-2006 survey cycles. A uniaxial accelerometer measured physical activity (PA) and sedentary time (ST). The associations of PA and ST with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and odds of CKD adopted the generalized linear regression, multivariable logistic regression, and isotemporal substitution models. Results A total of 5,990 adults with 605 CKD patients were included in this study. Compared with the individuals in the first quartile group, participants in the fourth quartile of low-intensity physical activity (LIPA), moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), and ST were associated with 52% (35%, 65%) and 42% (14%, 62%) lower odds of CKD and 64% (17%, 131%) higher odds of CKD, respectively. Substituting 30 min/day of ST with equivalent LIPA/MVPA contributed to risk reduction in CKD. Discussion The findings suggest that increased LIPA and MVPA and reduced ST were associated with a lower risk of CKD and that replacing ST with LIPA may decrease the risk of CKD.

Clin Exp Nephrol 2024:10.1007/s10157-024-02515-5. [PMID: 38789827 DOI: 10.1007/s10157-024-02515-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Alcohol consumption is associated with both beneficial and harmful effects, and the role of alcohol consumption in chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains inconclusive. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between alcohol consumption and CKD or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). METHODS This study enrolled adults from the second Taiwanese Survey on Prevalences of Hypertension, Hyperglycemia, and Hyperlipidemia, conducted in 2007. Participants were categorized into frequent drinkers, occasional drinkers, and nondrinkers. The amount of alcohol consumption was assessed by standard drinks per week. The primary outcome was the presence of CKD, and the secondary outcome was the eGFR. RESULTS Among 3967 participants with a mean age of 47.9 years and a CKD prevalence of 11.7%, 13.8% were frequent drinkers, and 23.1% were occasional drinkers. The average amount of alcohol consumed was 3.3 drinks per week. Frequent drinkers (odds ratio [OR] 0.622, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.443-0.874) and occasional drinkers (OR 0.597 95% CI 0.434-0.821) showed a lower prevalence of CKD than nondrinkers. Consumption of a larger number of standard drinks was associated with a lower prevalence of CKD (OR 0.872, 95% CI 0.781-0.975). Frequent drinkers and those who consumed a larger number of standard drinks per week showed higher eGFRs. CONCLUSION Within the range of moderate alcohol intake, those who consumed more alcohol had a higher eGFR and reduced prevalence of CKD. The potentially harmful effects of heavy drinking should be taken into consideration, and alcohol intake should be limited to less than light to moderate levels.

Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE Established therapeutic interventions effectively mitigate the risk and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Countries and regions have a compelling need for organizational structures that enable early identification of people with CKD who can benefit from these proven interventions. We report the current global status of CKD detection programs. STUDY DESIGN A multinational cross-sectional survey. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS Stakeholders, including nephrologist leaders, policymakers, and patient advocates from 167 countries, participating in the International Society of Nephrology (ISN) survey from June to September 2022. OUTCOME Structures for the detection and monitoring of CKD, including CKD surveillance systems in the form of registries, community-based detection programs, case-finding practices, and availability of measurement tools for risk identification. ANALYTICAL APPROACH Descriptive statistics. RESULTS Of all participating countries, 19% (n=31) reported CKD registries, and 25% (n=40) reported implementing CKD detection programs as part of their national policies. There were variations in CKD detection program, with 50% (n=20) using a reactive approach (managing cases as identified) and 50% (n=20) actively pursuing case-finding in at-risk populations. Routine case-finding for CKD in high-risk populations was widespread, particularly for diabetes (n=152; 91%) and hypertension (n=148; 89%). Access to diagnostic tools, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) was limited, especially in low-income (LICs) and lower-middle-income (LMICs) countries, at primary (eGFR: LICs 22%, LMICs 39%, UACR: LICs 28%, LMICs 39%) and secondary/tertiary health care levels (eGFR: LICs 39%, LMICs 73%, UACR: LICs 44%, LMICs 70%), potentially hindering CKD detection. LIMITATIONS A lack of detailed data prevented an in-depth analysis. CONCLUSIONS This comprehensive survey highlights a global heterogeneity in the organization and structures (surveillance systems and detection programs and tools) for early identification of CKD. Ongoing efforts should be geared toward bridging such disparities to optimally prevent the onset and progression of CKD and its complications. PLAIN-LANGUAGE SUMMARY Early detection and management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is crucial to prevent progression to kidney failure. A multinational survey across 167 countries revealed disparities in CKD detection programs. Only 19% reported CKD registries, and 25% implemented detection programs as part of their national policy. Half used a reactive approach while others actively pursued case-finding in at-risk populations. Routine case-finding was common for individuals with diabetes and hypertension. However, limited access to gold standard tools such as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR), especially in low-income and lower-middle income countries, may hinder CKD detection. A global effort to bridge these disparities is needed to optimally prevent the onset and progression of CKD and its complications.

Abstract
Introduction Liver cancer is one of the most common malignant gastrointestinal tumors worldwide. This study intends to provide insight into the epidemiological characteristics and development trends of liver cancer incidence and mortality from 2010 to 2020 in Guangzhou, China. Methods Data were collected from the Cancer Registry and Reporting Office of Guangzhou Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Cross-sectional study, Joinpoint regression (JPR) model, and Age-Period-Cohort (APC) model were conducted to analyze the age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) trend of liver cancer among the entire study period. Results The age-standardized incidence and mortality of liver cancer in Guangzhou showed an overall decreasing trend. The disparity in risk of morbidity and mortality between the two sexes for liver cancer is increasing. The cohort effect was the most significant among those born in 1965~1969, and the risk of liver cancer incidence and mortality in the total population increased and then decreased with the birth cohort. Compared with the birth cohort born in 1950~1954 (the reference cohort), the risk of liver cancer incidence and mortality in the males born in 1995~1999 decreased by 32% and 41%, respectively, while the risk in the females decreased by 31% and 32%, respectively. Conclusions The early detection, prevention, clinical diagnosis, and treatment of liver cancer in Guangzhou have made remarkable achievements in recent years. However, the risk of liver cancer in the elderly and the middle-aged males is still at a high level. Therefore, the publicity of knowledge related to the prevention and treatment of liver cancer among the relevant population groups should be actively carried out to enhance the rate of early diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer and to advocate a healthier lifestyle.

Abstract
The adult life stage encompasses a range of new experiences, opportunities, and responsibilities that impact health and well-being. During this life stage, health disparities continue to increase for Black Americans, with Black adults having a disproportionate burden of obesity, chronic diseases, comorbidities, and worse treatment outcomes compared to their White peers. While many of the underlying factors for these disparities can be linked to longstanding sociopolitical factors such as systemic racism, food insecurity, and poor access to healthcare, there are also several modifiable risk factors that are known to significantly impact health outcomes, such as improving diet quality, increasing physical activity, and not smoking. Of all the modifiable risk factors known to impact health, improving dietary habits is the factor most consistently associated with better outcomes for body weight and chronic disease. Of the major food groups recommended by the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) for achieving healthier dietary patterns, dairy foods have a nutrient profile which matches most closely to what Black Americans are inadequately consuming (e.g., vitamin A, vitamin D, calcium, magnesium). However, Black adults tend to consume less than half the recommended daily servings of dairy foods, in part, due to issues with lactose intolerance, making higher intake of dairy foods an ideal target for improving diet quality and health in this population. This review examines the current body of evidence exploring the links between dairy intake, obesity, cardiometabolic disease risk, chronic kidney disease, and the most common types of cancer, with a special focus on health and disparities among Black adults. Overall, the evidence from most systematic reviews and/or meta-analyses published in the last decade on dairy intake and health outcomes has been conducted on White populations and largely excluded research on Black populations. The findings from this extensive body of research indicate that when teamed with an energy-restricted diet, meeting or exceeding the DGA recommended 3 daily servings of dairy foods is associated with better body weight and composition outcomes and lower rates of most common chronic diseases than lower intake (<2 servings per day). In addition to the number of daily servings consumed, the specific types (e.g., milk, yogurt, cheese) and subtypes (e.g., low-fat, fermented, fortified) consumed have also been shown to play major roles in how these foods impact health. For example, higher intake of fermented dairy foods (e.g., yogurt) and vitamin D fortified dairy products appear to have the most protective effects for reducing chronic disease risk. Along with lactose-free milk and cheese, yogurt is also generally low in lactose, making it an excellent option for individuals with lactose intolerance, who are trying to meet the DGA recommendations for dairy food intake.

Association between soft drinks intake and low glomerular filtration rate in Mexican adults: Results from RenMex. Clin Nutr 2024; 43:1062-1069. [PMID: 38547595 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2024.03.002] [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: 08/25/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 03/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/13/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS To evaluate the association between soft drinks (SDs) consumption and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in a Mexican adult population. METHODS We used data from the RenMex consortium (n = 2095) that included the Mexican Teachers Cohort Study (34-65 years), the Health Workers Cohort Study (18-90 years), and the Comitán Study (19-91 years). In this cross-sectional study, we assessed SDs consumption (cola and flavored soda) using a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and estimated eGFR using the CKD Epidemiology Collaboration equation. Quantile regression was used to assess the association between SDs consumption and eGFR with eGFR as a continuous variable. Multinomial logistic regression models were used for eGFR categories derived from quantile regression (mildly decreased eGFR, ≥72.9-87.9 mL/min/1.73 m2 and moderately decreased eGFR, <72.9 mL/min/1.73 m2). RESULTS Mean age of study participants was 47.2 years, 67.5% were women, and 12.2% had diabetes. eGFR was <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 in 3.7% of study participants. Mildly decreased eGFR was present in 14.8%, and moderately decreased eGFR was present in 10.1% of study participants. Quantile regression results showed that SDs consumption was associated with lower eGFR at the 10th, 25th, 50th and 75th percentile. Based on the final adjusted multinomial model, ≥7 servings/week was positively associated with moderately decreased eGFR relative to <1 serving/week (Relative Risk Ratio = 1.95; 95% CI: 1.07-3.57). CONCLUSION Our results suggest that higher SDs consumption is associated with lower eGFR. Encouraging healthy dietary choices should be part of the management and prevention of CKD.

Abstract
α-klotho is an anti-aging protein. The correlation between smoking, smoking cessation and serum α-klotho levels remains controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between smoking, smoking cessation and serum α-klotho levels. This cross-sectional study finally included 4877 participants, aged 40-79 years, who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey studies from 2013 to 2016. Of these, 2312 (47.4%) were men and 894 (18.3%) were current smokers, and the mean age of the participants was 57.8±10.7 years. Multivariate linear regression modeling was used to assess the association between smoking, smoking cessation and serum α-klotho levels. After adjustment for multiple confounders, this study observed that smoking was negatively associated with serum α-klotho levels (β: -58.3; 95% confidence interval CI: -82.0 to -34.6; p<0.001), whereas smoking cessation was positively associated with serum α-klotho levels (β: 52.3; 95% CI: 24.1 to 80.6; p<0.001). In subgroup and interaction analyses, p-value for the interaction between smoking and race on serum klotho levels was found to be less than 0.001. The correlation between smoking, smoking cessation and serum α-klotho levels remained stable after propensity score matching (β: -54.1; 95% CI: -81.5 to -26.7; p<0.001, β: 54.8; 95% CI: 24.2 to 85.4; p<0.001). In a large sample population, the present study found that smoking, smoking cessation and serum α-klotho levels were associated in opposite directions.

Role of perirenal adiposity in renal dysfunction among CKD individuals with or without diabetes: a Japanese cross-sectional study. BMJ Open Diabetes Res Care 2024; 12:e003832.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION It remains unclear whether increased perirenal fat (PRF) accumulation is equally related to renal involvement in patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM). We evaluated the association between PRF volume (PRFV) and low glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and proteinuria in people with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We performed a cross-sectional analysis of 473 individuals without T2DM (non-DM, n=202) and with T2DM (DM, n=271). PRFV (cm3), obtained from non-contrast CT, was indexed as PRF index (PRFV/body surface area, cm3/m2). Multivariate-adjusted models were used to determine the ORs of PRFV and PRFV index for detecting estimated GFR (eGFR) decrease of <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 proteinuria onset, or both. RESULTS Although body mass index (BMI), visceral fat area, and waist circumference were comparable between the non-DM and DM groups, kidney volume, PRFV, and PRFV index were higher in individuals with T2DM than in those without T2DM. In the multivariate analysis, after adjusting for age, sex, BMI, hypertension, smoking history, and visceral fat area ≥100 cm2, the cut-off values of PRFV index were associated with an eGFR<60 in individuals with DM (OR 6.01, 95% CI 2.20 to 16.4, p<0.001) but not in those without DM. CONCLUSIONS PRFV is associated with low eGFR in patients with T2DM but not in those without T2DM. This suggests that PRF accumulation is more closely related to the onset and progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) than non-DKD. Clarifying the mechanisms through which PRF influences DKD development could pave the way for novel prevention and treatment strategies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several mouse models with diverse disease etiologies are used in preclinical research for chronic kidney disease (CKD). Here, we performed a head-to-head comparison of renal transcriptome signatures in standard mouse models of CKD to assess shared and distinct molecular changes in three mouse models commonly employed in preclinical CKD research and drug discovery. METHODS All experiments were conducted on male C57BL/6J mice. Mice underwent sham, unilateral ureter obstruction (UUO), or unilateral ischemic-reperfusion injury (uIRI) surgery and were terminated two- and 6-weeks post-surgery, respectively. The adenine-supplemented diet-induced (ADI) model of CKD was established by feeding with adenine diet for 6 weeks and compared to control diet feeding. For all models, endpoints included plasma biochemistry, kidney histology, and RNA sequencing. RESULTS All models displayed increased macrophage infiltration (F4/80 IHC) and fibrosis (collagen 1a1 IHC). Compared to corresponding controls, all models were characterized by an extensive number of renal differentially expressed genes (≥11,000), with a notable overlap in transcriptomic signatures across models. Gene expression markers of fibrosis, inflammation, and kidney injury supported histological findings. Interestingly, model-specific transcriptome signatures included several genes representing current drug targets for CKD, emphasizing advantages and limitations of the three CKD models in preclinical target and drug discovery. CONCLUSION The UUO, uIRI, and ADI mouse models of CKD have significant commonalities in their renal global transcriptome profile. Model-specific renal transcriptional signatures should be considered when selecting the specific model in preclinical target and drug discovery.

Abstract
An increasing body of randomized controlled trials suggests the safety of engaging in moderate to vigorous intensity exercise training following solid organ transplantation. Fueled by emerging sport events designed for transplant recipients and the ever-growing body of research highlighting the diverse health benefits of physical activity, transplant recipients are now increasingly participating in strenuous and occasionally competitive physical endeavors that largely surpass those evaluated in controlled research settings. This viewpoint article adopts a cautionary stance to counterbalance the prevalent one-sided optimistic perspective regarding posttransplant physical activity. While discussing methodological limitations, we explore plausible adverse impacts on the cardiovascular, immunological, and musculoskeletal systems. We also examine the physiological consequences of exercising in the heat, at high altitude, and in areas with high air pollution. Risks associated with employing performance-enhancing strategies and the conceivable psychological implications regarding physical activity as a tribute to the 'gift of life' are discussed. With a deliberate focus on the potential adverse outcomes of strenuous posttransplant physical activity, this viewpoint aims to restore a balanced dialogue on our comprehension of both beneficial and potentially detrimental outcomes of physical activity that ultimately underscores the imperative of well-informed decision-making and tailored exercise regimens in the realm of posttransplant care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcopenia is a senile syndrome of age-related muscle loss. It is thought to affect the development of chronic kidney disease and has a serious impact on the quality of life of the elder adults. Little is known about the association between sarcopenia and new-onset chronic kidney disease in middle-aged and elder adults. Using nationally representative data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), we conducted a longitudinal analysis to investigate the association between sarcopenia status and new-onset chronic kidney disease in middle-aged and elder adults in China. METHODS The study population consisted of 3676 participants aged 45 or older selected from 2011 CHARLS database who had no history of chronic kidney disease at the baseline and completed the follow-up in 2015. A multivariate cox regression model was employed to examine the association between sarcopenia and the incidence of new-onset chronic kidney disease. RESULTS Followed up for 4 years, a total of 873 (22.5%) new cases of chronic kidney disease occurred. Among them, participants diagnosed with sarcopenia (HR1.45; 95% CI 1.15-1.83) were more likely to develop new-onset chronic kidney disease than those without sarcopenia. Similarly, patients with sarcopenia were more likely to develop new-onset chronic kidney disease than those with possible sarcopenia (HR 1.27; 95%CI 1.00-1.60). Subgroup analysis revealed that elder adults aged between 60 and 75 years old (HR 1.666; 95%CI 1.20-22.28), with hypertension (HR 1.57; 95%CI 1.02-2.40), people with sarcopenia had a significantly higher risk of developing new-onset chronic kidney disease than those without sarcopenia (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Middle-aged and elder adults diagnosed with sarcopenia have a higher risk of developing new-onset chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Importance An increasing body of evidence indicates an association between consuming sugar or its alternatives and cardiometabolic diseases. However, the effects of the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages, artificially sweetened beverages, and natural juices on kidney health remain unclear. Objective To investigate the association of the intake of sugar-sweetened beverages, artificially sweetened beverages, and natural juices with the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and the effect of substituting these beverage types for one another on this association. Design, Setting, and Participants This prospective, population-based cohort study analyzed data from the UK Biobank. Participants without a history of CKD who completed at least 1 dietary questionnaire were included. The follow-up period was from the date of the last dietary questionnaire until October 31, 2022, in England; July 31, 2021, in Scotland; and February 28, 2018, in Wales. Data were analyzed from May 1 to August 1, 2023. Exposures Consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages, artificially sweetened beverages, and natural juices. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was incident CKD. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate the associations between the 3 beverage types and incident CKD. A substitution analysis was used to evaluate the effect on the associations of substituting one beverage type for another. Results A total of 127 830 participants (mean [SD] age, 55.2 [8.0] years; 66 180 female [51.8%]) were included in the primary analysis. During a median (IQR) follow-up of 10.5 (10.4-11.2) years, 4459 (3.5%) cases of incident CKD occurred. The consumption of more than 1 serving per day of sugar-sweetened beverages was associated with higher risk of incident CKD (adjusted hazard ratio [AHR], 1.19 [95% CI, 1.05-1.34]) compared with not consuming sugar-sweetened beverages. The AHR for participants consuming more than 0 to 1 serving per day of artificially sweetened beverages was 1.10 (95% CI, 1.01-1.20) and for consuming more than 1 serving per day was 1.26 (95% CI, 1.12-1.43) compared with consuming no artificially sweetened beverages. By contrast, there was no significant association between natural juice intake and incident CKD (eg, for >1 serving per day: HR, 0.99 [95% CI, 0.87-1.11]; P = .10). Substituting sugar-sweetened beverages with artificially sweetened beverages did not show any significant difference in the risk of CKD (HR, 1.03 [95% CI, 0.96-1.10]). Conversely, replacing 1 serving per day of sugar-sweetened beverage with natural juice (HR, 0.93 [95% CI, 0.87-0.97]) or water (HR, 0.93 [95% CI, 0.88-0.99]) or replacing 1 serving per day of artificially sweetened beverage with natural juice (HR, 0.90 [95% CI, 0.84-0.96]) or water (HR, 0.91 [95% CI, 0.86-0.96]) was associated with a reduced risk of incident CKD. Conclusions and Relevance Findings from this cohort study suggest that lower consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages or artificially sweetened beverages may reduce the risk of developing CKD.

Abstract
Objective Weekend sleep duration is linked to health issues, including mortality. However, how weekend sleep duration can impact chronic kidney disease (CKD) still needs to be understood. Therefore, we aimed to analyze how weekend sleep duration is associated with kidney function. Methods This is a cross-sectional study. Data were obtained from the 2017-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. We included 5362 study participants and categorized them into nine subgroups by sleep duration (short: ≤6 hours, normal: 6-9 hours, and long: ≥9 hours) on weekdays and weekends and analyzed for the respective association with renal function using stratified multivariable linear regression. Results Weekend sleep duration for 9 hours or more was associated with decreasing estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) levels by 2.8 to 6.4 mL/min/1.73 m2 among people with long to short weekday sleep duration compared with short weekday and weekend sleep durations (control group) after adjusting for demographic characteristics, body measurement, sleep quality, smoking, and comorbidities. The study population with short weekday sleep duration (sWK) and long weekend sleep duration (lWD) had the most significant decline in eGFR. For the study population with sWK, eGFR level significantly decreased by 1.1 mL/min/1.73 m2 as sleep duration on weekends increased by one hour. Conclusion The underlying mediators of lWD and CKD could be the dysregulation of human behaviors, metabolism, or biological functions. Longer weekend sleep duration was linked to a decrease in eGFR levels. It warrants further study to clarify the mediators.

Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2024; 34:455-465. [PMID: 38160137 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2023.10.010] [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: 06/09/2023] [Revised: 10/07/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Whether coffee consumption is associated with changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is unknown. We investigated the relationship between coffee consumption and annual eGFR change in a large Dutch population-based study. METHODS AND RESULTS This study was performed in 78,346 participants without chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the population-based Lifelines Cohort Study. Coffee consumption was assessed at baseline using food frequency questionnaires. Outcomes were annual eGFR change and a composite kidney outcome (defined as eGFR <60 mL/min per 1.73 m2 or >20 % eGFR decline). Multivariable linear and logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the associations of coffee consumption (categories and cups/day) with kidney outcomes. Overall, 90 % of the participants drank coffee daily and 36 % drank >2-4 cups/day. Unadjusted mean ± SD annual eGFR change ranged from -2.86 ± 2.96 (for non-coffee drinkers) to -2.35 ± 2.62 (for participants consuming >6 cups/day) mL/min per 1.73 m2. During 3.6 ± 0.9 years follow-up, 11.1 % of participants reached the composite kidney outcome. As compared to non-coffee drinkers, higher coffee consumption was associated with less annual eGFR decline in multivariable models (β [95 % CIs] ranged from 0.15 [0.07, 0.22] for >0-2 cups/day to 0.29 [0.20, 0.38] for >6 cups/day, P-trend <0.001). Consumption of one more cup of coffee per day was associated with a 3 % lower risk of the composite kidney outcome (OR [95%CI], 0.97 [0.96, 0.99]). The inverse association was more pronounced in a subgroup of individuals with diabetes. CONCLUSION Coffee consumption was inversely associated with annual eGFR change and CKD risk in a large Dutch population-based cohort.

Effect of osteosarcopenia on longitudinal mortality risk and chronic kidney disease progression in older adults. Bone 2024; 179:116975. [PMID: 37993037 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2023.116975] [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: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic kidney disease (CKD) causes a progressive loss of muscle and bone mass, which frequently overlap with and affect clinical outcomes. However, the impact of sarcopenia, low bone mineral density (BMD; osteopenia or osteoporosis), and osteosarcopenia (sarcopenia and low BMD) on CKD progression is yet to be determined. We aimed to address these issues in patients with CKD without kidney replacement therapy (KRT). METHODS This prospective cohort study included 251 outpatients aged ≥65 years with CKD without KRT enrolled in our hospital between June 2016 and March 2017. Sarcopenia was defined according to the 2014 criteria of the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS), and low BMD was defined as a T-score of ≤-1.0. The patients were divided into four groups: normal (no sarcopenia/normal BMD), only low BMD (no sarcopenia/low BMD), only sarcopenia (sarcopenia/normal BMD), and osteosarcopenia (sarcopenia/low BMD). The primary outcome was a composite of all-cause deaths, initiating KRT, and admissions owing to major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACEs). The secondary outcome was a kidney composite outcome that included a 30 % reduction in creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and initiating KRT. The outcome risk was determined using the Cox regression models adjusted for potential confounders. RESULTS Median age (25th-75th percentile) and eGFR of the outpatients (35 % women) were 76 (69-81) years and 32.1 (20.8-41.7) ml/min/1.73 m2, respectively. During a median follow-up period of 5.2 years, there were 22 deaths, 117 30 % eGFR reductions, 48 KRTs, and 18 admissions owing to MACEs. The osteosarcopenia group rather than the only low BMD or only sarcopenia groups exhibited a higher risk of the primary (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.28, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.52-7.08) and kidney composite (HR: 2.07, 95 % CI: 1.10-3.89) outcomes. Among the osteosarcopenia-related body compositions and physical functions, low handgrip strength (HGS) was strongly associated with a high risk of primary and kidney composite outcomes (HR: 2.44, 95 % CI: 1.46-4.08; HR: 1.48, 95 % CI: 0.97-2.24, respectively). The increase in HGS but not the body mass index, skeletal muscle mass index, or BMD was associated with lower risks of primary and kidney composite outcomes (HR: 0.93, 95 % CI: 0.89-0.98; HR: 0.96, 95 % CI: 0.92-0.99 per 1 kg, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Osteosarcopenia was associated with poor survival and kidney outcomes in older patients with CKD. Low HGS, which is common in patients with osteosarcopenia and CKD, was associated with increased mortality risk and kidney function decline. These findings can help the risk prediction and pathogenesis of the kidney-bone-muscle axis and improving muscle strength can help mitigate CKD progression.

Abstract
Tobacco smoking is an independent risk factor in the onset of kidney disease. To date, there have been no reports on the influence of waterpipe smoke (WPS) in experimentally induced chronic kidney disease (CKD) models. We studied the effects and mechanisms of actions of WPS on a mouse model of adenine-induced CKD. Mice fed either a normal diet, or an adenine-added diet and were exposed to either air or WPS (30 min/day and 5 days/week) for four consecutive weeks. Plasma creatinine, urea and indoxyl sulfate increased and creatinine clearance decreased in adenine + WPS versus either WPS or adenine + saline groups. The urinary concentrations of kidney injury molecule-1 and adiponectin and the activities of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase were augmented in adenine + WPS compared with either adenine + air or WPS groups. In the kidney tissue, several markers of oxidative stress and inflammation were higher in adenine + WPS than in either adenine + air or WPS groups. Compared with the controls, WPS inhalation in mice with CKD increased DNA damage, and urinary concentration of 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine. Furthermore, the expressions of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) (ERK and p38) were elevated in the kidneys of adenine + WPS group, compared with the controls. Likewise, the kidneys of adenine + WPS group revealed more marked histological tubular injury, chronic inflammation and interstitial fibrosis. In conclusion, WPS inhalation aggravates kidney injury, oxidative stress, inflammation, DNA damage and fibrosis in mice with adenine-induced CKD, indicating that WPS exposure intensifies CKD. These effects were associated with a mechanism involving NF-κB, ERK and p38 activations.

Abstract
Background Investigation of circulating metabolites associated with kidney function and chronic kidney disease (CKD) risk could enhance our understanding of underlying pathways and identify new biomarkers for kidney function. Methods We selected participants from the population-based Rotterdam Study with data on circulating metabolites and estimated glomerular filtration rate based on serum creatinine (eGFRcreat) available at the same time point. Data on eGFR based on serum cystatin C (eGFRcys) and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) were also included. CKD was defined as eGFRcreat <60 ml/min per 1.73 m2. Data on circulating metabolites (ntotal = 1381) was obtained from the Nightingale and Metabolon platform. Linear regression, linear mixed, and Cox proportional-hazards regression analyses were conducted to study the associations between metabolites and kidney function. We performed bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization analyses to investigate causality of the identified associations. Results We included 3337 and 1540 participants with data from Nightingale and Metabolon, respectively. A total of 1381 metabolites (243 from Nightingale and 1138 from Metabolon) were included in the analyses. A large number of metabolites were significantly associated with eGFRcreat, eGFRcys, ACR, and CKD, including 16 metabolites that were associated with all four outcomes. Among these, C-glycosyltryptophan (HR 1.50, 95%CI 1.31;1.71) and X-12026 (HR 1.46, 95%CI 1.26;1.68) were most strongly associated with CKD risk. We revealed sex differences in the associations of 11-ketoetiocholanolone glucuronide and 11-beta-glucuronide with the kidney function assessments. No causal associations between the identified metabolites and kidney function were observed. Conclusion Our study indicates that several circulating metabolites are associated with kidney function which are likely to have potential as biomarkers, rather than as molecules involved in the pathophysiology of kidney function decline.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prospective relation of childhood adversity with the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the association of childhood adversity with new-onset CKD and examine the potential modifications by unhealthy lifestyle on this association. METHODS A total of 115,453 adults without prior CKD at baseline were included from UK Biobank (2006-2010). Childhood adversity was retrospectively evaluated through online Childhood Trauma Screener in 2016. Six common lifestyle factors including smoking, body mass index, sleep, diet, physical activity and alcohol consumption, were combined into an unhealthy lifestyle score. New-onset CKD was the primary outcome. RESULT The average age of participants in the study was 55.3 (SD, 7.7) years, and 39.3% of them were male. During a median follow-up duration of 14.1 years, 1905 participants developed new-onset CKD. Childhood adversity was significantly positively related with the risk of new-onset CKD in dose-response pattern. Each additional type of childhood adversity was associated with a 12% increment in the risk of developing CKD (adjusted hazard ratio (HR)1.12; 95% CI 1.08, 1.16). Among participants with high unhealthy lifestyle score, those with 4-5 types of childhood adversity increased the 1.73-fold risk of incident CKD (95% CI 1.17, 2.54) compared with those free of any childhood adversity. However, no statistically significant interaction was observed between unhealthy lifestyle and childhood adversity for new-onset CKD (P interaction = 0.734). CONCLUSIONS Childhood adversity was significantly associated with an increased risk of new-onset CKD in a dose-response pattern regardless of unhealthy lifestyle.

Abstract
Particulate matter pollution could increase the risk of kidney disease, while evidence for ozone exposure is less well-established. Here, we aimed to evaluate the effect of ozone pollution on renal function and explore mechanisms. We first conducted a cross-sectional study based on Wuhan Chronic Disease Cohort Study baseline information. We recruited 2699 eligible participants, estimated their residential ozone concentrations, collected fasting peripheral blood samples for biochemical analysis and calculated the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The linear regression model was applied to evaluate the long-term association between ozone pollution and eGFR. Then, we recruited another 70 volunteers as a panel with 8 rounds follow-up visits. We calculated the eGFR and measured fasting blood glucose and lipid levels. The linear mixed-effect model along with mediation analysis were performed to confirm the short-term association and explore potential mechanisms, respectively. For the long-term association, a 10.95 μg/m3 increment of 3-year ozone exposure was associated with 2.96 mL/min/1.73 m2 decrease in eGFR (95%CI: -4.85, -1.06). Furthermore, the drinkers exhibited a pronounced declination of eGFR (-7.46 mL/min/1.73 m2, 95%CI: -11.84, -3.08) compared to non-drinkers in relation to ozone exposure. Additionally, a 19.02 μg/m3 increase in 3-day ozone concentrations was related to 2.51 mL/min/1.73 m2 decrease in eGFR (95%CI: -3.78, -1.26). Hyperglycemia and insulin resistance mediated 12.2% and 16.5% of the aforementioned association, respectively. Our findings indicated that higher ozone pollution could affect renal function, and the hyperglycemia and insulin resistance linked to ozone might be the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is closely associated with cardiovascular disease. We aimed to examine the association of Life's Essential 8 (LE8), the recently updated measurement of cardiovascular health, with the prevalence of CKD among US adults. METHODS AND RESULTS This population-based cross-sectional study used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2007 to 2018 and included adults aged ≥20 years. Multivariable logistic and restricted cubic spline models were used to assess the associations between LE8 and CKD. Among 24 960 participants, 4437 were determined to have CKD (weighted percentage, 14.11%). After the adjustment of potential confounders, higher LE8 scores were associated with reduced odds of CKD (odds ratio for each 10-point increase, 0.79 [95% CI, 0.76-0.83]), and a nonlinear dose-response relationship was observed. Similar patterns were also identified in the associations of health behavior and health factor scores with CKD. Meanwhile, higher scores for blood glucose (odds ratio, for each 10-point increase, 0.88 [95% CI, 0.87-0.90]) and blood pressure (odds ratio, for each 10-point increase, 0.92 [95% CI, 0.91-0.94]) in the LE8 component are significantly associated with a lower prevalence of CKD. The inversed association of LE8 score and CKD was significantly stronger among middle-aged, male, and coupled participants. CONCLUSIONS LE8 was negatively associated with the prevalence of CKD in a nonlinear fashion. Promoting adherence to optimal cardiovascular health levels may be beneficial to reduce the burden of CKD.

Lifestyle factors associated with a rapid decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate over two years in older adults with type 2 diabetes-Evidence from a large national database in Japan. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0295235. [PMID: 38091297 PMCID: PMC10718407 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0295235] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 11/18/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study investigated lifestyle risk factors from metabolic syndrome-related lifestyles for a rapid decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) among adults aged 40-74 years with treated and untreated type 2 diabetes. METHODS AND RESULTS This study analyzed data from the National Database of Health Insurance Claims and Specific Health Checkups of Japan, encompassing the period from fiscal year (FY) 2017 to FY2020. We established FY2018 as our baseline year. The subjects of this study were adults aged 40-74 in FY2018(baseline) who had type 2 diabetes and underwent specific health checkups in FY2020. We excluded adults with a medical record of kidney dialysis between FY2017 and FY2018, records of suspected type 1 diabetes between FY2017 and FY2020, or a baseline eGFR >85 mL/min/1.73 m2 or missing eGFR data as of FY2020. Eventually we analyzed 573,860 individuals. The outcome variable was a rapid decline in eGFR (≥30%) during the follow-up. Exposure lifestyle factors included skipping breakfast, late-night dinners, regular smoking, a high alcohol intake, non-refreshing sleep, and a lack of habitual exercise. Logistic regression models were stratified by age (40-59 and 60-74 years) and baseline eGFR levels (60-85, 30-59, and <30 mL/min/1.73 m2). Covariates included sex, a history of heart disease, a history of stroke, a history of renal failure, anemia, low-density lipoprotein, systolic blood pressure, hemoglobin A1C, body mass index, antidiabetic medications, antihypertension drugs, lipid-lowering drugs, the oral adsorbent Kremezin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and drugs for the treatment of renal anemia. A rapid decline in eGFR was detected in approximately 1.3% of participants (7,683 cases). In the baseline eGFR >30 subgroups (60-85 or 30-59 mL/min/1.73 m2), skipping breakfast and regular smoking were associated with a rapid decline in eGFR in both age groups, while a lack of habitual exercise and late-night dinners in the 60-74 age group and non-refreshing sleep in the 40-59 age group were identified as risk factors. Additionally, skipping breakfast was a risk factor for a rapid decline in eGFR in the 60-74 age group regardless of baseline eGFR levels. In the baseline eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2 subgroup, skipping breakfast and non-refreshed sleep were risk factors for a rapid decline in eGFR. CONCLUSIONS We found specific lifestyle risk factors were associated with a rapid eGFR decline among people with type 2 diabetes from a nationwide database in Japan. The associations varied by baseline eGFR level, age, and sex. Lifestyle modifications may effectively prevent the aggravation of diabetic kidney disease.

Abstract
Background The relationship between vitamin E supplementation and the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is unclear. We discussed the relationship between vitamin E intake and CKD prevalence and further investigated the effect on different CKD risk strata. Methods We ultimately included 20 295 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database from 2009 to 2016. Multiple logistic regression and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were applied to explore the relationship between vitamin E intake and CKD prevalence and risk stratification. Subgroup analysis was applied to assess the stability of the association between vitamin E intake and CKD. Results In the CKD prevalence study, we found a negative association between high vitamin E intake and CKD prevalence through an adjusted multiple logistic regression model, the odds ratio (OR) was 0.86 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.74-1.00; P for trend = .041] and RCS showed a nonlinear negative correlation (P-nonlinear = .0002, <.05). In the CKD risk stratification study, we found that in very high-risk patients, the OR was 0.51 (95% CI 0.32-0.84; P for trend = .006) and the RCS also showed a nonlinear negative correlation (P-nonlinear <.0001, <.05). Subgroup analysis demonstrated that the correlations were stable across populations (P-values >.01 for all interactions). Conclusion Dietary vitamin E intake was negatively associated with the prevalence of CKD in US adults. Increased vitamin E intake was a protective factor across CKD risk strata, and as vitamin E intake increased, there was a non-linear downward trend in the proportion progressing to very high-risk CKD.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasingly prevalent worldwide and is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. New therapeutic options to slow CKD progression and reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality have recently emerged. This review highlights recent evidence and gaps in knowledge in emerging CKD preventive strategies. RECENT FINDINGS EMPA-Kidney trial found that empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) led to 28% lower risk of progression of kidney disease or death from cardiovascular causes, compared to placebo. This reinforced the previous findings from DAPA-CKD and CREDENCE trials and led to inclusion of SGLT2i as the cornerstone of CKD preventive therapy in both diabetic and non-diabetic CKD. Finerenone, a selective nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, slowed diabetic kidney disease progression by 23% compared to placebo in a pool analysis of FIDELIO-DKD and FIGARO-DKD trials. Non-pharmacological interventions, including low protein diet, and early CKD detection and risk stratification strategies based on novel biomarkers have also gained momentum. Ongoing efforts to explore the wealth of molecular mechanisms in CKD, added to integrative omics modeling are well posed to lead to novel therapeutic targets in kidney care. While breakthrough pharmacological interventions continue to improve outcomes in CKD, the heterogeneity of kidney diseases warrants additional investigation. Further research into specific kidney disease mechanisms will facilitate the identification of patient populations most likely to benefit from targeted interventions.

Abstract
AIMS It is known that there are sex differences in vascular endothelial function and the development of chronic kidney diseases; however, it remains unclear whether sex differences influence the association between vascular endothelial function and renal prognosis. METHODS To clarify the relationship between vascular endothelial function and longitudinal eGFR changes in male and female patients with cardiovascular risk factors, we retrospectively evaluated 341 patients (176 males and 165 females) with cardiovascular risk factors in whom vascular function was assessed by flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and in whom 24-month longitudinal eGFR values were recorded after the vascular function examinations. Associations of values of FMD and baPWV with values of eGFR slope were statistically analyzed. RESULTS Simple regression analysis showed that the value of FMD was positively associated with eGFR slope in females (p=0.001) and non-smoking males (p=0.033) but not in smoking males. Multiple regression analysis showed that the value of FMD remains a positive contributor for eGFR slope in females (p=0.001) and non-smoking males (p=0.045) but not in smoking males. In contrast, values of baPWV had no significant association with eGFR slope regardless of sex and cigarette smoking. CONCLUSIONS In individuals with cardiovascular risk factors, evaluation of vascular endothelial function enables prediction of renal prognosis in females and non-smoking males.

Relationship Between Physical Activity and Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate in Renal Transplant Recipients: A Cross-sectional Study Analyzing Isotemporal Substitution Model. J Ren Nutr 2023; 33:755-763. [PMID: 37302717 DOI: 10.1053/j.jrn.2023.05.008] [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: 04/17/2022] [Revised: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/27/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Successful renal transplantation reduces mortality rates. However, the decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) after transplantation is strongly associated with premature mortality in renal transplant recipients (RTRs). Physical activity (PA) is a modifiable lifestyle factor with the potential to maintain or improve eGFR. However, the effects of the type or intensity of PA and sedentary behavior (SB) on eGFR in RTRs remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to clarify the association between accelerometry-measured PA and SB and eGFR in RTRs using isotemporal substitution (IS) analysis. METHODS A total of 82 renal transplant outpatients participated in this cross-sectional study, of which 65 (average age, 56.9 years; average time post-transplant, 83.0 months) were finally analyzed. All RTRs wore a triaxial accelerometer to measure PA for 7 consecutive days. The measured PA was classified based on intensity into light PA, moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA), and SB. The association of each type of PA with eGFR was examined using multi-regression analyses of single-factor, partition, and IS models. The IS model was applied to examine the estimated effects of substituting 30 minutes of SB with an equal amount of time of light PA or MVPA on eGFR. RESULTS The partition model showed that MVPA was an independent explanatory variable for eGFR (β = 5.503; P < .05), and the IS model identified that the substitution of time spent in SB with MVPA led to improvements in eGFR (β = 5.902; P < .05). CONCLUSIONS The present study suggests that MVPA has an independent and positive association with eGFR, and replacing 30 minutes of SB with MVPA after renal transplantation might lead to the maintenance or improvement of eGFR in RTRs.

Abstract
Background Depression is highly prevalent and related to increased morbidity and mortality in patients on dialysis, but less is known among patients with earlier stages of CKD. This study investigated the associations between depression and clinical outcomes in patients with CKD not receiving dialysis. Methods We identified 157 398 adults with CKD stages 3-5 not previously diagnosed with depression from the Stockholm CREAtinine Measurements (SCREAM) project. The primary outcomes included hospitalization, CKD progression (>40% decline in eGFR, initiation of kidney replacement therapy, or death due to CKD), major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE; myocardial infarction, stroke, or cardiovascular death), and all-cause mortality. Survival analyses were used to estimate the associations between incident depression and adverse health outcomes, adjusting for socio-demographics, kidney disease severity, healthcare utilization, comorbidities, and concurrent use of medications. Results During a median follow-up of 5.1 (interquartile range: 2.3-8.5) years, 12 712 (8.1%) patients received an incident diagnosis of depression. A total of 634 471 hospitalizations (4 600 935 hospitalized days), 42 866 MACEs, and 66 635 deaths were recorded, and 9795 individuals met the criteria for CKD progression. In the multivariable-adjusted analyses, incident depression was associated with an elevated rate of hospitalized days [rate ratio: 1.77, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.71-1.83], as well as an increased rate of CKD progression [hazard ratio (HR): 1.38, 95% CI: 1.28-1.48], MACE (HR: 1.22, 95% CI: 1.18-1.27), and all-cause mortality (HR: 1.41, 95% CI: 1.37-1.45). The association with CKD progression was more evident after one year of depression diagnosis (HR: 1.47, 95% CI: 1.36-1.59). Results were robust across a range of sensitivity analyses. Conclusion Among patients with nondialysis-dependent CKD stages 3-5, incident depression is associated with poor prognosis, including hospitalization, CKD progression, MACE, and all-cause mortality.

Abstract
People living with chronic kidney disease (CKD) require long-term support at varying levels of individualization, intensity, and frequency. Mobile and digital models of nutrition care can facilitate long-term behavior change, address nutrition issues proactively, reduce travel burden, and reach people without access to health care more easily. However, while traditional health delivery continues to be digitally disrupted, there are many barriers to address before mobile and digitally supported models of nutrition care can become business as usual in nephrology and nutrition care practice. This paper overviews the current evidence base concerning the past and present mobile and digital health programs to improve nutrition in CKD and highlights the novel future trends in this field. The way nutrition and dietetic care can be feasible, safe, and potentially effective when delivered using various digital and virtual technologies, including consultations, assessments, establishment of diagnoses, formulation of plans, and monitoring/reviewing clinical progress is discussed. Of the available evidence to date, these modalities appear to improve dietary sodium intake and diet quality, self-efficacy, interdialytic weight gain, and body weight. Many barriers exist to sustaining the continued and widespread adoption of digital and mobile health-supported nutrition care in CKD. These include patient-, clinician-, and health system-specific and are discussed in detail. Mobile and digital-supported models of nutrition care present an exciting opportunity to assist kidney dietitians deliver patient-centred nutrition care in CKD.

Abstract
Individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), and the kidney function is a critical determinant of this risk. CKD is also a major cause of complications and disease progression in patients with CVD. Practice guidelines suggest that CVD risk in CKD patients can be managed through healthy lifestyle and dietary behaviors. Assessing the impact of diet on heart and kidney health is complex because numerous bioactive compounds from diet may contribute to or prevent CVD or CKD via a myriad of pathways and mechanisms. The objective of this review was to provide a discussion of the mechanisms and evidence linking protein-rich foods and CVD risk in people with CKD. This review highlights the current evidence-based strategies for primary CKD prevention that incorporate a healthy dietary pattern, while tertiary prevention strategies focus on avoiding excess protein and reducing dietary acid load. The effect of protein restriction for improving CVD and CKD outcomes is conflicting; however, these approaches show no negative effects on kidney health. Low-protein and very low-protein diets are promising interventions for reducing the progression of CKD and CVD. Animal-sourced protein may be more detrimental to kidney health than plant-sourced protein due to specific acid load, amino acid composition, generation of uremic toxins, accompanying saturated fat content, low fiber composition, and higher generation of advanced glycation end-products. There are no one-size fits all nutrition prescriptions. Personalized nutrition interventions that target the unique risk factors for CVD associated with reduced kidney function are required to improve the health of people living with CKD.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and its downstream complications (i.e. cardiovascular) are a major source of morbidity worldwide. Additionally, deaths due to CKD or CKD-attributable cardiovascular disease account for a sizeable proportion of global mortality. However, the advent of new pharmacotherapies, diagnostic tools, and global initiatives are directing greater attention to kidney health in the public health agenda, including the implementation of effective strategies that (i) prevent kidney disease, (ii) provide early CKD detection, and (iii) ameliorate CKD progression and its related complications. In this Review, we discuss major risk factors for incident CKD and CKD progression categorized across cardiovascular (i.e. hypertension, dyslipidemia, cardiorenal syndrome), endocrine (i.e. diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism, testosterone), lifestyle (i.e. obesity, dietary factors, smoking), and genetic/environmental (i.e. CKDu/Mesoamerican nephropathy, APOL1, herbal nephropathy) domains, as well as scope, mechanistic underpinnings, and management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD), a major public health problem with differing disease etiologies, leads to complications, comorbidities, polypharmacy, and mortality. Monitoring disease progression and personalized treatment efforts are crucial for long-term patient outcomes. Physicians need to integrate different data levels, e.g., clinical parameters, biomarkers, and drug information, with medical knowledge. Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) can tackle these issues and improve patient management. Knowledge about the awareness and implementation of CDSS in Germany within the field of nephrology is scarce. PURPOSE Nephrologists' attitude towards any CDSS and potential CDSS features of interest, like adverse event prediction algorithms, is important for a successful implementation. This survey investigates nephrologists' experiences with and expectations towards a useful CDSS for daily medical routine in the outpatient setting. METHODS The 38-item questionnaire survey was conducted either by telephone or as a do-it-yourself online interview amongst nephrologists across all of Germany. Answers were collected and analysed using the Electronic Data Capture System REDCap, as well as Stata SE 15.1, and Excel. The survey consisted of four modules: experiences with CDSS (M1), expectations towards a helpful CDSS (M2), evaluation of adverse event prediction algorithms (M3), and ethical aspects of CDSS (M4). Descriptive statistical analyses of all questions were conducted. RESULTS The study population comprised 54 physicians, with a response rate of about 80-100% per question. Most participants were aged between 51-60 years (45.1%), 64% were male, and most participants had been working in nephrology out-patient clinics for a median of 10.5 years. Overall, CDSS use was poor (81.2%), often due to lack of knowledge about existing CDSS. Most participants (79%) believed CDSS to be helpful in the management of CKD patients with a high willingness to try out a CDSS. Of all adverse event prediction algorithms, prediction of CKD progression (97.8%) and in-silico simulations of disease progression when changing, e. g., lifestyle or medication (97.7%) were rated most important. The spectrum of answers on ethical aspects of CDSS was diverse. CONCLUSION This survey provides insights into experience with and expectations of out-patient nephrologists on CDSS. Despite the current lack of knowledge on CDSS, the willingness to integrate CDSS into daily patient care, and the need for adverse event prediction algorithms was high.

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.

Diet and Other Modifiable Factors in Long-Term Decline of Kidney Function: Observational and Population-Based Cohort Study. Nutrients 2023; 15:4337. [PMID: 37892413 PMCID: PMC10609413 DOI: 10.3390/nu15204337] [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: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lower physical activity, lower alcohol intake, higher protein intake, higher sodium intake, and lower potassium intake related to greater kidney function decline over time, according to previous studies. The present study aimed to analyze the cumulative effects of these factors. METHODS This prospective, observational, population-based cohort study included 3039 adult examinees of the Gubbio study who participated in the baseline exam and 15-year follow-up exam. Kidney function was evaluated as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Habitual physical activity in leisure time and habitual alcohol intake were assessed by questionnaires; dietary intakes of protein, sodium, and potassium were assessed by urinary markers. Based on previous reports, each one of the five modifiable factors was scored 0 for the tertile associated with smaller eGFR decline (low risk), 2 for the tertile associated with greater eGFR decline (high risk), and 1 for the intermediate tertile (intermediate risk). A cumulative score was calculated as the sum of the factor-specific scores and used as the main independent variable. RESULTS The cumulative score ranged from 0 to 10, that is, from low risk for all factors to high risk for all factors (skewness = 0.032, mean ± SD = 5 ± 2). To avoid the bias of low-n analyses, score 0 was re-coded as 1 and score 10 was recoded as 9; after re-coding, the cumulative score ranged from 1 to 9 (skewness = 0.016, mean ± SD = 5 ± 2). The cumulative score related to annualized eGFR change in multi-variable linear regression (slope = -0.027, 95%CI = -0.039/-0.014, p < 0.001); findings were consistent in apparently healthy examinees and other subgroups. De novo incidence of eGFR < 60 mL/min × 1.73 m2 was higher along the cumulative score (p < 0.001). Compared to score 1 (n examinees = 35, adjusted incidence = 2.0%), incidence of low kidney function was 4.5 times higher in score 5 (n examinees = 624, adjusted incidence = 8.9%) and 6.5 times higher in score 9 (n examinees = 86, adjusted incidence = 12.9%). The cumulative score related to incidence of low kidney function in multi-variable logistic regression (odds ratio = 1.19, 95%CI = 1.08/1.32, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The combination of five modifiable factors predicted large differences in long-term incidence of low kidney function.

User Evaluation of a Chat-Based Instant Messaging Support Health Education Program for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: Preliminary Findings of a Formative Study. JMIR Form Res 2023; 7:e45484. [PMID: 37725429 PMCID: PMC10548329 DOI: 10.2196/45484] [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: 01/04/2023] [Revised: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Artificial intelligence-driven chatbots are increasingly being used in health care, but few chat-based instant messaging support health education programs are designed for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to evaluate their effectiveness. In addition, limited research exists on the usage of chat-based programs among patients with CKD, particularly those that integrate a chatbot aimed at enhancing the communication ability and disease-specific knowledge of patients. OBJECTIVE The objective of this formative study is to gather the data necessary to develop an intervention program of chat-based instant messaging support health education for patients with CKD. Participants' user experiences will form the basis for program design improvements. METHODS Data were collected from April to November 2020 using a structured questionnaire. A pre-post design was used, and a total of 60 patients consented to join the 3-month program. Among them, 55 successfully completed the study measurements. The System Usability Scale was used for participant evaluations of the usability of the chat-based program. RESULTS Paired t tests revealed significant differences before and after intervention for communicative literacy (t54=3.99; P<.001) and CKD-specific disease knowledge (t54=7.54; P<.001). Within disease knowledge, significant differences were observed in the aspects of CKD basic knowledge (t54=3.46; P=.001), lifestyle (t54=3.83; P=.001), dietary intake (t54=5.51; P<.001), and medication (t54=4.17; P=.001). However, no significant difference was found in the aspect of disease prevention. Subgroup analysis revealed that while the findings among male participants were similar to those of the main sample, this was not the case among female participants. CONCLUSIONS The findings reveal that a chat-based instant messaging support health education program may be effective for middle-aged and older patients with CKD. The use of a chat-based program with multiple promoting approaches is promising, and users' evaluation is satisfactory.
