Epidemiology of chronic kidney disease in older indigenous peoples of Brazil: findings from a cross-sectional survey. Aging Clin Exp Res 2023; 35:2201-2209. [PMID: 37517045 DOI: 10.1007/s40520-023-02510-y] [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: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 07/16/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a prevalent disease worldwide, with increasing incidence particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Indigenous communities have poorer CKD outcomes due to limited access to healthcare. They are also experiencing a shift toward a sedentary lifestyle and urbanization-related dietary changes, increasing the risk of CKD-related risk factors. AIM To determine the prevalence of CKD in older Brazilian indigenous and identify the main associated risk factors. METHODS This cross-sectional study analyzed demographic and clinical data of 229 older indigenous individuals aged 60 years and above in 2022-2023. CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or a urinary albumin-creatinine ratio > 30 mg/g. Data were presented categorically and analyzed using the Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. RESULTS The prevalence of CKD in the population was 26.6%, with higher prevalence in women and increasing with age. The prevalence of hypertension and diabetes was 67.7% and 24.0%, respectively, and these comorbidities were associated with CKD: hypertension (OR = 5.12; 95% CI 2.2-11.9) and diabetes (OR = 5.5; 95% CI 3.7-8.2). No association was found between the prevalence of CKD and obesity, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular disease, or smoking. DISCUSSION The study found a higher prevalence of CKD among older indigenous populations in Brazil compared to non-indigenous populations, which is exacerbated by risk factors, such as aging, hypertension, diabetes, and lifestyle changes, emphasizing the importance of early detection and intervention in these communities. CONCLUSION Older persons' indigenous individuals have a high prevalence of CKD, which is correlated with factors, such as sex, age, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension.

BMC Nephrol 2023; 24:258. [PMID: 37661257 PMCID: PMC10476333 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-023-03303-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty is common in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients and becomes more prevalent as kidney disease progresses. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of physical frailty and quantify the relationship between frailty and mortality risk in patients with CKD. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Clinicaltrial.gov, and major renal academic conferences were systematically searched, and additional references to relevant articles were manually searched. The prevalence of physical frailty and the risk of mortality based on random-effects models were assessed using percentages and hazard ratio (HR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS A total of 139 articles, including 1,675,482 participants, met the eligibility criteria for the meta-analysis. The results showed that 34.5% (95% CI 31.0 to 38.1%) of CKD patients showed signs of frailty, and 39.4% (95% CI 35.4 to 43.5%) had prefrail symptoms. Compared to non-frail patients, the risk of mortality was increased by 94.1% (95% CI 1.586 to 2.375) in frail patients and 34.5% (95% CI 1.231 to 1.469) in prefrail patients. CONCLUSION The high prevalence of frailty and prefrail in adults with CKD and resulting in premature death emphasize the importance of measuring frailty, which provides important prognostic information and may provide opportunities for interventions to improve the prognosis of patients with CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Studies analysing the association of albuminuria and prevalent frailty in community-dwelling very old adults are scarce and lack information on incident frailty. We investigated the association of kidney function decline and increase of albuminuria with frailty worsening or death in very old adults. DESIGN Longitudinal analyses with biennial visits of the Berlin Initiative (cohort) Study and a frailty follow-up of 2.1 years. SETTING/SUBJECTS 1,076 participants with a mean age of 84.3 (5.6) years of whom 54% were female. METHODS Partial proportional odds models were used to assess the association of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline and/or albuminuria (albumin creatinine ratio, ACR) with frailty worsening or death. RESULTS At frailty baseline, 1,076 participants with an eGFR of 50 (13) ml/min/1.73 m2, 48% being prefrail and 31% frail were included. After median 2.1 years, 960 (90%) participants had valid information on frailty transition: 187 (17.5%) worsened and 111 (10.3%) died. In the multivariable model, the odds of frailty worsening for participants with albuminuria in combination with eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 were elevated [OR (95% CI): 2.47 (1.41-4.31)] compared to participants without albuminuria and eGFR ≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2 as there was a rapid eGFR decline of ≥3 ml/min/1.73 m2 per year [1.55 (1.04-2.33)] and albuminuria trajectories six years prior [1.53 (1.11-2.10)] to frailty baseline. The odds of death for each exposure were even higher. CONCLUSIONS In older adults, advanced stages of CKD and albuminuria alone were associated with 2-fold odds of frailty worsening independent of death.

Abstract
Frailty and chronic kidney disease (CKD) both increase with age and are prevalent in older adults. However, studies in older adults examining the relationship between frailty and milder impairments of kidney function are relatively sparse. We examined the cross-sectional association of baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), albuminuria and CKD ([eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 ] and/or albuminuria [>3.0 mg/mmol]) with prefrailty and frailty in the ASPirin in Reducing Events in the Elderly (ASPREE) trial cohort of healthy older participants. Univariate logistic regression models measured the unadjusted odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for prevalent combined prefrailty and frailty (respectively defined as presence of 1-2 or 3+ of 5 modified fried criteria) for the association between CKD, eGFR, albuminuria and other potential risk factors. Multivariable models calculated OR for prefrailty-frailty adjusted for potential confounders and either CKD, (i) eGFR and albuminuria measured as either continuous variables; (ii) or categorical variables; (iii). Of 17 759 eligible participants, 6934 were classified as prefrail, 389 were frail. CKD, eGFR and albuminuria were all associated with combined prefrailty-frailty on univariate analysis. In the multivariable modelling, neither CKD (reduced eGFR and/or albuminuria), nor eGFR (either continuous or categorical variables) were associated with prefrailty-frailty. However, albuminuria, either as a continuous variable (OR [95% CI] 1.07 [1.04-1.10]; p < .001), or categorical variable (OR 1.21 [1.08-1.36]; p = .001) was consistently associated with prefrailty-frailty. The complex relationship between albuminuria (which may be a biomarker for vascular inflammation), ageing, progressive CKD and frailty requires further investigation.

PHENOMICS (CHAM, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 2:430-437. [PMID: 36939795 PMCID: PMC9712899 DOI: 10.1007/s43657-022-00072-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2021] [Revised: 07/31/2022] [Accepted: 08/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Owing to the susceptibility of conventional observational studies to confounding factors and reverse causation, the causal association between cardiac function and frailty is unclear. We aimed to investigate whether cardiac function has causal effects on frailty. In this study, a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study was conducted using genetic variants associated with cardiac function assessed by magnetic resonance imaging phenotypes as instrumental variables. Genetic variants associated with cardiac function by magnetic resonance imaging (including seven cardiac function phenotypes) and the frailty index (FI) were obtained from two large genome-wide association studies. MR estimates from each genetic instrument were combined using inverse variance weighted (IVW), weighted median, and MR‒Egger regression methods. We found that the increase in genetically determined stroke volume (beta - 0.13, 95% CI - 0.16 to - 0.10, p = 1.39E-6), rather than other cardiac phenotypes, was associated with lower FI in MR analysis of IVW after Bonferroni correction. Sensitivity analyses examining potential bias caused by pleiotropy or reverse causality revealed similar findings (e.g., intercept [SE], - 0.008 [0.011], p = 0.47 by MR‒Egger intercept test). The leave-one-out analysis indicated that the association was not driven by single nucleotide polymorphisms. No evidence of heterogeneity was found among the genetic variants (e.g., MR‒Egger: Q statistic = 14.4, p = 0.156). In conclusion, we provided evidence that improved cardiac function could contribute to reducing FI. These findings support the hypothesis that enhancing cardiac function could be an effective prevention strategy for frailty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Geriatrics Society (AGS) Beers Criteria is an explicit list of potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) best avoided in adults ≥65 years of age. Cognitively impaired and frail surgical patients often experience poor outcomes after surgery, but the impacts of PIMs on these patients are unclear. Our objective was to assess whether perioperative PIM administration was associated with poor outcomes in geriatric surgical patients. We then evaluated the association between PIM administration and postoperative outcomes in subgroups of patients who were frail or cognitively impaired. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients ≥65 years of age who underwent elective inpatient surgery at a large academic medical center from February 2018 to January 2020. Edmonton Frail Scale and Mini-Cog screening tools were administered to all patients at their preoperative clinic visit. A Mini-Cog score of 0 to 2 was considered cognitive impairment, and frailty was defined by an Edmonton Frail Scale score of ≥8. Patients were divided into 2 groups depending on whether they received at least 1 PIM (PIM+), based on the 2019 AGS Beers Criteria, in the perioperative period or none (PIM-). We assessed the association of preoperative frailty, cognitive impairment, and perioperative PIM administration with the length of hospital stay and discharge disposition using multiple regression analyses adjusted for age, sex, ASA physical status, and intensive care unit (ICU) admission. RESULTS Of the 1627 included patients (mean age, 73.7 years), 69.3% (n = 1128) received at least 1 PIM. A total of 12.7% of patients were frail, and 11.1% of patients were cognitively impaired; 64% of the frail patients and 58% of the cognitively impaired patients received at least 1 PIM. Perioperative PIM administration was associated with longer hospital stay after surgery (PIM-, 3.56 ± 5.2 vs PIM+, 4.93 ± 5.66 days; P < .001; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.360-0.546). Frail patients who received PIMs had an average length of stay (LOS) that was nearly 2 days longer than frail patients who did not receive PIMs (PIM-, 4.48 ± 5.04 vs PIM+, 6.33 ± 5.89 days; P = .02). Multiple regression analysis revealed no significant association between PIM administration and proportion of patients discharged to a care facility (PIM+, 26.3% vs PIM-, 28.7%; P = .87; 95% CI, -0.046 to 0.054). CONCLUSIONS Perioperative PIM administration was common in older surgical patients, including cognitively impaired and frail patients. PIM administration was associated with an increased hospital LOS, particularly in frail patients. There was no association found between PIM administration and discharge disposition.

Abstract
Background: As life expectancy rises, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is being performed more frequently, even in elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). This study evaluated outcomes of elderly patients with AMI complicated by heart failure (AMIHF), as defined by Killip Class ≥2 at admission, who undergo PCI. Methods and Results: We retrospectively analyzed 185 patients with AMIHF aged ≥80 years (median age 85 years) who underwent PCI between 2009 and 2019. The median follow-up period was 572 days. The rates of in-hospital major bleeding (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium Type 3 or 5) and in-hospital all-cause mortality were 20.5% and 25.9%, respectively. The proportion of frail patients increased during hospitalization, from 40.6% at admission to 59.2% at discharge (P<0.01). The cumulative incidence of all-cause mortality was 36.3% at 1 year and 44.1% at 2 years. After adjusting for confounders, advanced age, Killip Class 4, final Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction flow grade <3, and longer door-to-balloon time were associated with higher mortality, whereas higher left ventricular ejection fraction and cardiac rehabilitation were associated with lower mortality (all P<0.05). Progression of frailty during hospitalization was an independent risk factor for long-term mortality in hospital survivors (P<0.01). Conclusions: The management of patients with AMIHF aged ≥80 years who undergo PCI remains challenging, with high rates of in-hospital major bleeding, frailty progression, and mortality.

Associations between frailty trajectories and cardiovascular, renal, and mortality outcomes in chronic kidney disease. J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle 2022; 13:2426-2435. [PMID: 35851589 PMCID: PMC9530530 DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.13047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2022] [Revised: 04/11/2022] [Accepted: 06/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty is characterized by the loss of biological reserves and vulnerability to adverse outcomes. In individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD), numerous pathophysiological factors may be responsible for frailty development including inflammation, physical inactivity, reduced energy intake, and metabolic acidosis. Given that both CKD and frailty incur a significant healthcare burden, it is important to understand the relationship of CKD and frailty in real-world routine clinical practice, and how simple frailty assessment methods (e.g. frailty indexes) may be useful. We investigated the risk of frailty development in CKD and the impact of frailty status on mortality and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). METHODS A retrospective cohort study using primary care records from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink linked to Hospital Episode Statistics and the UK Office for National Statistics was undertaken in 819 893 participants aged ≥40 years, of which 140 674 had CKD. Frailty was defined using an electronic frailty index, generated electronically from primary care records. Cox proportional hazard and flexible parametric survival models were used to investigate the risk of developing frailty and the effect of frailty on risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, and ESKD. RESULTS The mean age of those with CKD was 77.5 (SD 9.7) years [61.0 (SD 12.1) years in no-CKD group]; 62.0% of the CKD group were female (compared with 53.3% in no-CKD group). The mean estimated glomerular filtration rate of those with CKD was 46.1 (SD 9.9) mL/min/1.73 m2 . The majority of those with CKD (75.3%) were frail [vs. 45.4% in those without CKD (no-CKD)]. Over 3 years (median), 69.5% of those with CKD developed frailty. Compared with no-CKD, those with CKD had increased rates of developing mild (hazard ratio: 1.02; 95% confidence interval: 1.01-1.04), moderate (1.30; 1.26-1.34), and severe (1.50; 1.37-1.65) frailty. Mild (1.22; 1.19-1.24), moderate (1.60; 1.56-1.63), and severe (2.16; 2.11-2.22) frailty was associated with increased rates of all-cause and cardiovascular-related mortality (mild 1.35; 1.31-1.39; moderate 1.96; 1.90-2.02; and severe 2.91; 2.81-3.02). All stages of frailty significantly increased ESKD rates. CONCLUSIONS Frailty is highly prevalent and associated with adverse outcomes in people with CKD, including mortality and risk of ESKD. Preventative interventions should be initiated to mitigate the development of frailty. The use of a simple frailty index, generated electronically from health records, can predict outcomes and may aid prioritization for management of people with frailty.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the impact of pressure ulcer events assessed by the Braden Scale (BS) on acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). DESIGN A multicentre retrospective cohort study. SETTING Chest pain centres from seven tertiary hospitals in China. PARTICIPANTS We analysed 3185 patients with ACS from the Retrospective Evaluation of Acute Chest Pain study. The patients were divided into three groups (B1, B2 and B3) according to their BS scores (≤12 vs 13-14 vs ≥15, respectively) at admission. OUTCOME MEASURES AKI was defined according to the criteria of the 2012 Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes. Multivariate logistic analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between the BS score and AKI. RESULTS There were 461 patients (14.5%) with ACS who had the complication of AKI. Patients with a lower score on the BS had a higher incidence of AKI (p<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that adjusted ORs of the BS score for AKI were 2.242 (B1 vs B3: 95% CI: 1.643 to 3.060, p<0.001) and 1.566 (B2 vs B3: 95% CI: 1.186 to 2.069, p=0.002). The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of the BS score was 0.719 (95% CI: 0.702 to 0.736; p<0.001) for AKI. CONCLUSIONS The BS score was independently associated with AKI. It may be a useful tool to identify those who may benefit from further prediction and prevention of AKI in patients with ACS.

[PMID: 34335140 PMCID: PMC8319092 DOI: 10.3389/ijph.2021.1603966] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 05/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the associations between lifestyle factors and the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) levels in older adults by analyzing the United States National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data (1999–2016). Methods: A total of 10,052 eligible participants were divided into two groups: reduced eGFR group (eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2) and normal group (eGFR ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73 m2). The primary factors were physical activity, alcohol consumption, smoking, and comorbidities. Results: Multivariable analysis revealed that older age, proteinuria, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hyperuricemia, and hypertension were significantly associated with higher odds of reduced kidney function. Sufficient physical activity, current alcohol consumption, and being a current smoker were significantly associated with lower odds of reduced kidney function. However, subgroup analysis by sex revealed that the effects of proteinuria, current alcohol consumption, and sufficient physical activity were sex-specific. Conclusion: Several risk and beneficial factors for reduced kidney function in adults aged 65 and above in the United States were identified, but some of them might be sex-specific. Further studies are warranted to confirm these findings in other populations and countries.

Predicting survival in patients with acute decompensated heart failure complicated by cardiogenic shock. IJC HEART & VASCULATURE 2021; 34:100809. [PMID: 34141863 PMCID: PMC8188054 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcha.2021.100809] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 05/15/2021] [Accepted: 05/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Background Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS) has unique pathophysiological background requiring specific patient stratification, management and therapeutic targets. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to derive a simple stratification tool to predict survival in patients with ADHF complicated by CS. Methods and results Using logistic regression, univariable testing was performed to identify the variables potentially associated with 28-day mortality. We propose a new logistic model (ALC-Shock score) based on three easy parameters (age, serum creatinine and serum lactate at the ICU admission) as a powerful predictor of survival or successful bridge to heart replacement therapy at 28-day follow-up in this specific population. A multivariable analysis (logistic model) was performed to evaluate the association between selected variables and outcome (overall death at 28-day follow up). The score was then validated in a different cohort of 93 ADHF-CS patients and compared to a previous developed score (the Cardshock score).Overall, 28-day mortality was 34%. The ALC-shock score showed better discrimination (Area Under the Curve-AUC- 0.82; 95% CI 0.73-0.91) as compared to the Cardshock score (AUC 0.67; 95% CI 0.55-0.79) (p = 0.009) to predict 28-days overall mortality. In the validation cohort the AUC for the ALC-shock score was 0.66. Conclusions A simple score including age, lactates and creatinine on admission could be considered to predict short-term mortality in CS-ADHF patients in order to drive towards a treatment intensification.
