Vascular calcification and cardiac function according to residual renal function in patients on hemodialysis with urination.

ABSTRACT: Vascular calcification is common and may affect cardiac function in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). However, little is known about the effect of residual renal function on vascular calcification and cardiac function in patients on hemodialysis.This study was conducted between January 2014 and January 2017. One hundred six patients with residual renal function on maintenance hemodialysis for 3 months were recruited. We used residual renal urea clearance (KRU) to measure residual renal function. First, abdominal aortic calcification score (AACS) and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) were measured in patients on hemodialysis. Second, we performed echocardiography and investigated new cardiovascular events after study enrollment.The median KRU was 0.9 (0.3-2.5) mL/min/1.73m2. AACS (4.0 [1.0-10.0] vs. 3.0 [0.0-8.0], p = 0.05) and baPWV (1836.1 ± 250.4 vs. 1676.8 ± 311.0 cm/s, p = 0.01) were significantly higher in patients with a KRU < 0.9 mL/min/1.73m2 than a KRU ? 0.9 mL/min/1.73m2. Log-KRU significantly negatively correlated with log-AACS (ß = -0.29, p = 0.002) and baPWV (ß = -0.19, P = 0.05) after factor adjustment. The proportion of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction was significantly higher in patients with a KRU < 0.9 mL/min/1.73m2 than with a KRU ? 0.9 mL/min/1.73m2 (67.9% vs. 49.1%, p = 0.05). Patients with a KRU < 0.9 mL/min/1.73m2 showed a higher tendency of cumulative cardiovascular events compared to those with a KRU ? 0.9 ml/min/1.73m2 (P = 0.08).Residual renal function was significantly associated with vascular calcification and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in patients on hemodialysis.

Project description:Background and objectivesThe relationship between mineral and bone disorders and survival according to residual kidney function status has not been previously studied in patients on hemodialysis. We hypothesized that residual kidney function, defined by renal urea clearance, modifies the association between mineral and bone disorder parameters and mortality.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsThe associations of serum phosphorus, albumin-corrected calcium, intact parathyroid hormone, and alkaline phosphatase with all-cause mortality were examined across three strata (<1.5, 1.5 to <3.0, and ?3.0 ml/min per 1.73 m2) of baseline residual renal urea clearance using Cox models adjusted for clinical characteristics and laboratory measurements in 35,114 incident hemodialysis patients from a large United States dialysis organization over the period of 2007-2011.ResultsA total of 8102 (23%) patients died during the median follow-up of 1.3 years (interquartile range, 0.6-2.3 years). There was an incremental mortality risk across higher serum phosphorus concentrations, which was pronounced among patients with higher residual renal urea clearance (Pinteraction=0.001). Lower concentrations of serum intact parathyroid hormone were associated with higher mortality among patients with low residual renal urea clearance (i.e., <1.5 ml/min per 1.73 m2), whereas higher concentrations showed a higher mortality risk among patients with greater residual renal urea clearance (i.e., ?1.5 ml/min per 1.73 m2; Pinteraction<0.001). Higher serum corrected total calcium and higher alkaline phosphatase concentrations consistently showed higher mortality risk (Ptrend<0.001 for both) irrespective of residual renal urea clearance strata (Pinteraction=0.34 and Pinteraction=0.53, respectively).ConclusionsResidual kidney function modified the mortality risk associated with serum phosphorus and intact parathyroid hormone among incident hemodialysis patients. Future studies are needed to examine whether taking account for residual kidney function into the assessment of mortality risk associated with serum phosphorus and intact parathyroid hormone improves patient management and clinical outcomes in the hemodialysis population.

Project description:Background and objectivesChronic subclinical volume overload occurs very frequently and may be ubiquitous in hemodialysis (HD) patients receiving the standard thrice-weekly treatment. It is directly associated with hypertension, increased arterial stiffness, left ventricular hipertrophy, heart failure, and eventually, higher mortality and morbidity. We aimed to assess for the first time if the relationship between bioimpedance assessed overhydration and survival is maintained when adjustments for echocardiographic parameters are considered.Design, setting, participants and measurementsA prospective cohort trial was conducted to investigate the impact of overhydration on all cause mortality and cardiovascular events (CVE), by using a previously reported cut-off value for overhydration and also investigating a new cut-off value derived from our analysis of this specific cohort. The body composition of 221 HD patients from a single center was assessed at baseline using bioimpedance. In 157 patients supplemental echocardiography was performed (echocardiography subgroup). Comparative survival analysis was performed using two cut-off points for relative fluid overload (RFO): 15% and 17.4% (a value determined by statistical analysis to have the best predictive value for mortality in our cohort).ResultsIn the entire study population, patients considered overhydrated (using both cut-offs) had a significant increased risk for all-cause mortality in both univariate (HR = 2.12, 95%CI = 1.30-3.47 for RFO>15% and HR = 2.86, 95%CI = 1.72-4.78 for RFO>17.4%, respectively) and multivariate (HR = 1.87, 95%CI = 1.12-3.13 for RFO>15% and HR = 2.72, 95%CI = 1.60-4.63 for RFO>17.4%, respectively) Cox survival analysis. In the echocardiography subgroup, only the 17.4% cut-off remained associated with the outcome after adjustment for different echocardiographic parameters in the multivariate survival analysis. The number of CVE was significantly higher in overhydrated patients in both univariate (HR = 2.46, 95%CI = 1.56-3.87 for RFO >15% and HR = 3.67, 95%CI = 2.29-5.89 for RFO >17.4%) and multivariate (HR = 2.31, 95%CI = 1.42-3.77 for RFO >15% and HR = 4.17, 95%CI = 2.48-7.02 for RFO >17.4%) Cox regression analysis.ConclusionsThe study shows that the hydration status is associated with the mortality risk in a HD population, independently of cardiac morphology and function. We also describe and propose a new cut-off for RFO, in order to better define the relationship between overhydration and mortality risk. Further studies are needed to properly validate this new cut-off in other HD populations.

Project description:BackgroundCardiac valve calcification (CVC) is associated with adverse cardiovascular events. We studied the risk factors of CVC in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients and the value of serum β2-microglobulin (β2-MG) levels in predicting the incidence of CVC. β2-MG is a middle molecular weight toxin. In recent years, researchers found that elevated blood β2-MG was associated with coronary, thoracic, and abdominal aortic calcifications with significant correlations. β2-MG has been emerging as a strong biomarker for cardiovascular mortality in uremic patients but its role in CVC is not well studied. This study looked specifically at CVC occurrence in relation to β2-MG for MHD patients.MethodsPatients who underwent MHD for more than 3 months in the First People's Hospital of Nantong City from November 2012 to November 2019 with complete available data were included in the study. The patients were divided into the CVC group and the non-CVC group. The general information and clinical laboratory indicators of the patients were collected in a retrospective manner. We analyzed the risk factors for developing CVC in MHD patients using binary logistic regression method. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to calculate the cut-off value of β2-MG for predicting CVC. The decision tree (DT) method was used to classify and explore the probability of CVC in patients with MHD.ResultsThe β2-MG in the CVC group was significantly higher than that in the non-CVC group (t=6.750, P<0.001). Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, serum β2-MG, and hemodialysis (HD) adequacy (Kt/V urea) were independent risk factors for CVC in MHD patients. ROC analysis showed that a β2-MG value of 25 µg/L was the best cut-off point for predicting CVC in MHD patients. According to binary logistic regression analysis, the β2-MG ≥25 µg/L group was 3.39 times more likely to develop CVC than the β2-MG <25 µg/L group [odds ratio (OR), 3.39; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.63-7.06; P=0.001]. The DT model determined that serum β2-MG ≥25 µg/L and age >69 years were important determinants for predicting CVC in MHD patients.ConclusionsSerum β2-MG in MHD patients has a positive correlation with the severity and occurrence of CVC.

Project description:BackgroundVascular calcification (VC) commonly occurs and seriously increases the risk of cardiovascular events and mortality in patients with hemodialysis. For optimizing individual management, we will develop a diagnostic multivariable prediction model for evaluating the probability of VC.MethodsThe study was conducted in four steps. First, identification of miRNAs regulating osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in calcified condition. Second, observing the role of miR-129-3p on VC in vitro and the association between circulating miR-129-3p and VC in hemodialysis patients. Third, collecting all indicators related to VC as candidate variables, screening predictors from the candidate variables by Lasso regression, developing the prediction model by logistic regression and showing it as a nomogram in training cohort. Last, verifying predictive performance of the model in validation cohort.ResultsIn cell experiments, miR-129-3p was found to attenuate vascular calcification, and in human, serum miR-129-3p exhibited a negative correlation with vascular calcification, suggesting that miR-129-3p could be one of the candidate predictor variables. Regression analysis demonstrated that miR-129-3p, age, dialysis duration and smoking were valid factors to establish the prediction model and nomogram for VC. The area under receiver operating characteristic curve of the model was 0.8698. The calibration curve showed that predicted probability of the model was in good agreement with actual probability and decision curve analysis indicated better net benefit of the model. Furthermore, internal validation through bootstrap process and external validation by another independent cohort confirmed the stability of the model.ConclusionWe build a diagnostic prediction model and present it as an intuitive tool based on miR-129-3p and clinical indicators to evaluate the probability of VC in hemodialysis patients, facilitating risk stratification and effective decision, which may be of great importance for reducing the risk of serious cardiovascular events.
