Longitudinal Study of the Decline in Renal Function in Healthy Subjects.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chronic kidney disease is an important concern in preventive medicine, but the rate of decline in renal function in healthy population is not well defined. The purpose of this study was to determine reference values for the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and rate of decline of eGFR in healthy subjects and to evaluate factors associated with this decline using a large cohort in Japan.

Methods

Retrospective cross-sectional and longitudinal studies were performed with healthy subjects aged ?18 years old who received a medical checkup. Reference values for eGFR were obtained using a nonparametric method and those for decline of eGFR were calculated by mixed model analysis. Relationships of eGFR decline rate with baseline variables were examined using a linear least-squares method.

Results

In the cross-sectional study, reference values for eGFR were obtained by gender and age in 72,521 healthy subjects. The mean (±SD) eGFR was 83.7±14.7 ml/min/1.73 m2. In the longitudinal study, reference values for eGFR decline rate were obtained by gender, age, and renal stage in 45,586 healthy subjects. In the same renal stage, there was little difference in the rate of decline regardless of age. The decline in eGFR depended on the renal stage and was strongly related to baseline eGFR, with a faster decline with a higher baseline eGFR and a slower decline with a lower baseline eGFR. The mean (±SD) eGFR decline rate was ?1.07±0.42 ml/min/1.73 m2/year (?1.29±0.41%/year) in subjects with a mean eGFR of 81.5±11.6 ml/min/1.73 m2.

Conclusions

The present study clarified for the first time the reference values for the rate of eGFR decline stratified by gender, age, and renal stage in healthy subjects. The rate of eGFR decline depended mainly on baseline eGFR, but not on age, with a slower decline with a lower baseline eGFR.

Project description:BackgroundThe associations between long-term changes in body mass composition and decline in lung function in healthy adults are unknown.MethodsUsing a well-defined health check-up database, we first assessed individual longitudinal changes in muscle mass (MM) and fat mass (FM) measured via bioelectrical impedance analyses. Then we classified the enrolled individuals into five body composition groups according to their MM index (MMI) [MM (kg)/height (m)2 ] or FM index (FMI) [FM (kg)/height (m)2 ] change rate quartiles. Linear mixed models adjusted for age, smoking status, height, and body mass index were used to analyse the rate of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) decline and body composition groups.ResultsA total of 15 476 middle-aged individuals (6088 women [mean age ± standard deviation: 50.74 ± 7.44] and 9388 men [mean age ± standard deviation: 49.36 ± 6.99]) were enrolled. The mean number of measurements was 6.96 (interquartile range [IQR]: 5-9) over an average follow-up period of 8.95 years (IQR: 6.73-11.10). Decrease in MMI was significantly associated with accelerated FEV1 decline in men only (P = 1.7 × 10-9 ), while increase in FMI was significantly associated with accelerated FEV1 decline in both women and men (P = 7.9 × 10-10 and P < 2.0 × 10-16 respectively). Linear mixed model analyses indicated that annual increase of 0.1 kg/m2 in MMI was related to accelerated FEV1 decline by 30.79 mL/year (95% confidence interval [CI]: 26.10 to 35.48 mL/year) in men. Annual increase of 0.1 kg/m2 in FMI was related to accelerated FEV1 decline by 59.65 mL/year in men (95% CI: 56.84 to 62.28 mL/year) and by 22.84 mL/year in women (95% CI: 18.95 to 26.74 mL/year). In body composition analysis, we found increase in MMI was significantly associated with attenuated FEV1 decline in men only (P = 1.7 × 10-9 ), while increase in FMI was significantly associated with accelerated FEV1 decline in both women and men (P = 7.9 × 10-10 and P < 2.0 × 10-16 respectively). Individuals characterized with gain MM combined with loss of FM were associated with the most favourable outcome (i.e. the smallest rate of decline in FEV1) in both women and men. In men, loss of FM over time is more closely related with attenuated FEV1 decline than change in MM (gain or loss).ConclusionsChange in body composition over time can be used to identify healthy middle-aged individuals at high risk for rapid FEV1 decline.
