Bowel habits were associated with mortality in chronic kidney disease: results from a nationwide prospective cohort study.


ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Bowel habits may affect the prognosis in the chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. This study aimed to explore the association of bowel habits with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in CKD.

Methods

2460 CKD patients in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2005 through 2010 without missing data for bowel habits and mortality were enrolled. Bowel habits including bowel movements (BMs) per week and stools consistency were obtained by standard interview. Mortality status and cause of death were determined by NHANES-linked National Death Index records through 31 December 2015. Cox proportional hazard models and Kaplan-Meier analysis were used to evaluate the association of bowel habits with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality.

Results

A total of 2460 CKD patients with an average age of 60.80 ± 0.57 years were enrolled. During an average follow-up of 87.47 ± 0.98 months, 144 cardiovascular and 669 all-cause deaths were documented. Reporting 3 or fewer BMs per week was associated with cardiovascular (HR = 1.83, 95% CI: 1.06, 3.17) and all-cause mortality (HR = 1.71, 95% CI: 1.20, 2.43). More than 10 BMs per week also increased the risk of all-cause mortality (HR = 1.21, 95% CI: 1.01, 1.45). Hard stools consistency increased the risk of all-cause mortality (HR= 2.00, 95% CI: 1.48, 2.70) compared with those reporting normal stools.

Conclusion

Low stool frequency and hard stool consistency were associated with an increased risk of mortality in patients with CKD.
