Urinary Calcium Excretion and Risk of Chronic Kidney Disease in the General Population.

ABSTRACT: Introduction:High urinary calcium excretion (UCaE) has been shown to lead to accelerated renal function decline in individuals with renal tubular diseases. It is not known whether this association also exists in the general population. Therefore, we investigated whether high UCaE is associated with risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD) in community-dwelling subjects. Methods:Urine samples of 5491 subjects who were free of CKD at baseline and participated in the Prevention of Renal and Vascular End-Stage Disease study (a prospective, observational, general population-based cohort of Dutch men and women aged 28-75 years) were examined for UCaE. UCa concentration was measured in two 24-hour urine samples at baseline (1997-1998) by indirect potentiometry. UCaE was treated as a continuous variable and a categorical variable grouped according to sex-specific quintiles for UCaE. UCaE was compared with de novo development of estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 ml/min per 1.73 m2 and/or albuminuria >30 mg/24 h. Results:Baseline median UCaE was 4.13 mmol/24 h for men and 3.52 mmol/24 h for women. During a median follow-up of 10.3 years, 899 subjects developed CKD. After multivariable adjustment, every 1 mmol/24 h higher baseline UCaE was associated with a 6% lower risk for incident CKD during follow-up (hazard ratio: 0.94 [0.88-0.99], P = 0.02). The association was shown to be significantly nonlinear, with highest risk of CKD in the lowest quintile for UCaE (hazard ratio: 1.28 [0.97-1.68], P = 0.09). There was no association between UCaE and mortality or cardiovascular health during follow-up, suggesting that this association was not a reflection of poor nutritional intake due to bad health. Discussion:These findings indicate that high UCaE does not increase risk of CKD, but rather that low UCaE may be harmful.

Project description:ImportanceOxalate is a potentially toxic terminal metabolite that is eliminated primarily by the kidneys. Oxalate nephropathy is a well-known complication of rare genetic disorders and enteric hyperoxaluria, but oxalate has not been investigated as a potential contributor to more common forms of chronic kidney disease (CKD).ObjectiveTo assess whether urinary oxalate excretion is a risk factor for more rapid progression of CKD toward kidney failure.Design, setting, and participantsThis prospective cohort study assessed 3123 participants with stages 2 to 4 CKD who enrolled in the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort study from June 1, 2003, to September 30, 2008. Data analysis was performed from October 24, 2017, to June 17, 2018.ExposuresTwenty-four-hour urinary oxalate excretion.Main outcomes and measuresA 50% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD).ResultsThis study included 3123 participants (mean [SD] age, 59.1 [10.6] years; 1414 [45.3%] female; 1423 [45.6%] white). Mean (SD) eGFR at the time of 24-hour urine collection was 42.9 (16.8) mL/min/1.73 m2. Median urinary excretion of oxalate was 18.6 mg/24 hours (interquartile range [IQR], 12.9-25.7 mg/24 hours) and was correlated inversely with eGFR (r = -0.13, P < .001) and positively with 24-hour proteinuria (r = 0.22, P < .001). During 22 318 person-years of follow-up, 752 individuals reached ESRD, and 940 individuals reached the composite end point of ESRD or 50% decline in eGFR (CKD progression). Higher oxalate excretion was independently associated with greater risks of both CKD progression and ESRD: compared with quintile 1 (oxalate excretion, <11.5 mg/24 hours) those in quintile 5 (oxalate excretion, ≥27.8 mg/24 hours) had a 33% higher risk of CKD progression (hazard ratio [HR], 1.33; 95% CI, 1.04-1.70) and a 45% higher risk of ESRD (HR, 1.45; 95% CI, 1.09-1.93). The association between oxalate excretion and CKD progression and ESRD was nonlinear and exhibited a threshold effect at quintiles 3 to 5 vs quintiles 1 and 2. Higher vs lower oxalate excretion (at the 40th percentile) was associated with a 32% higher risk of CKD progression (HR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.13-1.53) and 37% higher risk of ESRD (HR, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.15-1.63). Results were similar when treating death as a competing event.Conclusions and relevanceHigher 24-hour urinary oxalate excretion may be a risk factor for CKD progression and ESRD in individuals with CKD stages 2 to 4.

Project description:IMPORTANCE:Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared with the general population. Prior studies have produced contradictory results on the association of dietary sodium intake with risk of CVD, and this relationship has not been investigated in patients with CKD. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the association between urinary sodium excretion and clinical CVD events among patients with CKD. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS:A prospective cohort study of patients with CKD from 7 locations in the United States enrolled in the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort Study and followed up from May 2003 to March 2013. EXPOSURES:The cumulative mean of urinary sodium excretion from three 24-hour urinary measurements and calibrated to sex-specific mean 24-hour urinary creatinine excretion. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES:A composite of CVD events defined as congestive heart failure, stroke, or myocardial infarction. Events were reported every 6 months and confirmed by medical record adjudication. RESULTS:Among 3757 participants (mean age, 58 years; 45% women), 804 composite CVD events (575 heart failure, 305 myocardial infarction, and 148 stroke) occurred during a median 6.8 years of follow-up. From lowest (<2894 mg/24 hours) to highest (?4548 mg/24 hours) quartile of calibrated sodium excretion, 174, 159, 198, and 273 composite CVD events occurred, and the cumulative incidence was 18.4%, 16.5%, 20.6%, and 29.8% at median follow-up. In addition, the cumulative incidence of CVD events in the highest quartile of calibrated sodium excretion compared with the lowest was 23.2% vs 13.3% for heart failure, 10.9% vs 7.8% for myocardial infarction, and 6.4% vs 2.7% for stroke at median follow-up. Hazard ratios of the highest quartile compared with the lowest quartile were 1.36 (95% CI, 1.09-1.70; P?=?.007) for composite CVD events, 1.34 (95% CI, 1.03-1.74; P?=?.03) for heart failure, and 1.81 (95% CI, 1.08-3.02; P?=?.02) for stroke after multivariable adjustment. Restricted cubic spline analyses of the association between sodium excretion and composite CVD provided no evidence of a nonlinear association (P?=?.11) and indicated a significant linear association (P?<?.001). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE:Among patients with CKD, higher urinary sodium excretion was associated with increased risk of CVD.
