Abstract
Rationale & Objective Dietary factors may impact inflammation and interferon production, which could influence phenotypic expression of Apolipoprotein1 (APOL1) genotypes. We investigated whether associations of dietary patterns with kidney outcomes differed by APOL1 genotypes. Study Design Prospective cohort. Settings & Participants 5,640 Black participants in the Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS). Exposures Five dietary patterns derived from food frequency questionnaires: Convenience foods, Southern, Sweets and Fats, Plant-based, and Alcohol/Salads. Outcomes Incident chronic kidney disease (CKD), CKD progression, and kidney failure. Incident CKD was defined as a change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 accompanied by a ≥25% decline from baseline eGFR or development of kidney failure among those with baseline eGFR ≥60 mL/1.73 m2 body surface area. CKD progression was defined as a composite of 40% reduction in eGFR from baseline or development of kidney failure in the subset of participants who had serum creatinine levels at baseline and completed a second in-home visit/follow-up visit. Analytical Approach We examined associations of dietary pattern quartiles with incident CKD (n=4,188), CKD progression (n=5,640), and kidney failure (n=5,640). We tested for statistical interaction between dietary patterns and APOL1 genotypes for CKD outcomes and explored stratified analyses by APOL1 genotypes. Results Among 5,640 Black REGARDS participants, mean age was 64 years (standard deviation = 9), 35% were male, and 682 (12.1%) had high-risk APOL1 genotypes. Highest versus lowest quartiles (Q4 vs Q1) of Southern dietary pattern were associated with higher adjusted odds of CKD progression (OR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.01-1.63) but not incident CKD (OR, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.74-1.14) or kidney failure (HR, 1.48; 95% CI, 0.90-2.44). No other dietary patterns showed significant associations with CKD. There were no statistically significant interactions between APOL1 genotypes and dietary patterns. Stratified analysis showed no consistent associations across genotypes, although Q3 and Q4 versus Q1 of Plant-based and Southern patterns were associated with lower odds of CKD progression among APOL1 high- but not low-risk genotypes. Limitations Included overlapping dietary patterns based on a single time point and multiple testing. Conclusions In Black REGARDS participants, Southern dietary pattern was associated with increased risk of CKD progression. Analyses stratified by APOL1 genotypes suggest associations may differ by genetic background, but these findings require confirmation in other cohorts.

Rationale and Design of the Diet, CKD, and Apolipoprotein L1 Study in Low-Income and Middle-Income Countries. Kidney Int Rep 2023; 8:764-774.

Abstract
Introduction Diet, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and Apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) (DCA) Study is examining the role of dietary factors in CKD progression and APOL1 nephropathy. We describe enrollment and retention efforts and highlight facilitators and barriers to enrollment and operational challenges, as well as accommodations made in the study protocol. Methods The DCA study is enrolling participants in 7 centers in West Africa. Participants who consented were invited to complete dietary recalls and 24-hour urine collections in year 1. We conducted focus groups and semistructured interviews among study personnel to identify facilitators and barriers to enrollment as well as retention and operational challenges in the execution of the study protocol. We analyzed emerging themes using content analyses. Results A total of 712 participants were enrolled in 18 months with 1256 24-hour urine and 1260 dietary recalls. Barriers to enrollment were the following: (i) a lack of understanding of research, (ii) the burden of research visits, and (iii) incorporating cultural and traditional nuances when designing research protocols. Factors facilitating enrollment were the following: (i) designing convenient research visits, (ii) building rapport and increased communication between the research team and participants, and (iii) cultural sensitivity - adapting research protocols for the populations involved. Offering home visits, providing free dietary counseling, reducing the volume of study blood collection, and reducing the frequency of visits were some changes made in the study protocol that increased participant satisfaction. Conclusion Adopting a participant-centered approach with accommodations in the protocol for cultural adaptability and incorporating participant feedback is vital for carrying out research in low-income and middle-income regions.
