The association between soluble klotho and cardiovascular parameters in chronic kidney disease: results from the KNOW-CKD study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Klotho, a protein linked to aging, has emerged as a pivotal player in mineral bone metabolism and might explain the relationship between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The present study aimed to investigate the association between serum klotho and cardiac parameters from a large-scale Korean CKD cohort.

Methods

We analyzed 2101 participants from KoreaN Cohort Study for Outcome in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (KNOW-CKD) cohort who had been measured for serum klotho levels. Left ventricular hypertrophy evaluated by left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and arterial stiffness measured by brachial-to-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) were explored as cardiovascular parameters.

Results

Patients were 53.6 ± 12.2 years old and 61.1% were male. The mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 53.0 ± 30.7 mL/min/1.73m². The median serum klotho level was 536 (interquartile range [IQR]: 420-667) pg/mL. Advanced CKD stages were associated with lower serum klotho levels (P < 0.001, P for linear trend < 0.001). Ascending quartiles of klotho were significantly associated with decreased LMVI (P < 0.001, P for linear trend< 0.001). A multivariable linear regression model showed serum klotho had a significant inverse association with LVMI (β - 0.04; 95% CI [confidence interval] -0.004, - 0.00007; P = 0.041). However, there was no significant association between serum klotho and baPWV after adjustment (β 0.003; 95% CI -0.04, 0.05; P = 0.876).

Trial registration

This trial was registered on ClinicalTrials.gov on 28 June 2012 ( NCT01630486 ).

Conclusions

Serum klotho was an independent biomarker of LVMI, but not arterial stiffness.

Project description:BackgroundMetabolic syndrome (MS) is prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Klotho, a protein linked to aging, is closely associated with CKD. Each component of MS and klotho has an association. However, little is known about the association between klotho and MS per se. We investigated the association between serum klotho levels and MS using baseline cross-sectional data obtained from a large Korean CKD cohort.MethodsOf the 2238 subjects recruited in the KoreaN Cohort Study for Outcome in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (KNOW-CKD) between 2011 and 2016, 484 patients with missing data on serum klotho and extreme klotho values (values lower than the detectable range or > 6000 pg/mL) or with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease patients were excluded. The data of the remaining 1754 subjects were included in the present study. MS was defined using the revised National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel (NCEP-ATP) III criteria. Serum klotho levels were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.ResultsMean patient age was 54.9 ± 12.1 years and 1110 (63.3%) were male. The prevalence of MS among all study subjects was 63.7% (n = 1118). The median serum klotho level was 527 pg/mL (interquartile range [IQR]: 418-656 pg/mL). Serum klotho level was significantly lower in MS patients than patients without MS (Median [IQR]; 521 pg/mL [413, 651] vs. 541 pg/mL [427, 676], respectively; P = 0.012). After adjusting for age, sex, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and overt proteinuria, serum klotho was independently associated with MS (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.44; 95% confidence interval, 0.23-0.82; P = 0.010). Furthermore, the adjusted OR for MS was found to be significantly increased at serum klotho levels of < 518 pg/mL (receiver operating characteristic curve cut-off value).ConclusionsSerum klotho was inversely associated with the presence of MS in patients with CKD.Trial registrationThis trial was registered on ClinicalTrials.gov on 26 June 2012 ( https://clinicaltrials.gov;NCT01630486 ).

Project description:Background It is unclear whether high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT) is associated with subclinical cardiac changes in chronic kidney disease (CKD). We evaluated the relationship between hs-TnT and left ventricular structure and function in a CKD population, according to estimated glomerular filtration rate. Methods and Results We analyzed 2017 patients with CKD stages 1 to 5 (predialysis) in the KNOW-CKD (Korean Cohort Study for Outcome in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease) cohort. The predictor was hs-TnT level measured at baseline, and the outcomes were left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and systolic and diastolic dysfunction shown by echocardiography at baseline and after 4 years. Participants were categorized into quartiles according to hs-TnT levels. The associations between quartiles of hs-TnT and outcomes were assessed using multivariable logistic regression analysis with confounders including demographics, medical history, and laboratory findings. A receiver operating characteristic curve was used to assess the diagnostic power of hs-TnT for the outcomes as a continuous variable. For subgroup analysis, patients were stratified based on an estimated glomerular filtration rate of 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2. Elevated hs-TnT was associated with LVH and diastolic dysfunction at baseline in an adjusted model but was not associated with systolic dysfunction. These associations remained significant for both estimated glomerular filtration rate subgroups. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that hs-TnT as a continuous variable exhibited fair significance for detection of LVH (area under the curve: 0.689) and diastolic dysfunction (area under the curve: 0.744). Multivariable analysis showed that higher hs-TnT levels at baseline were related to development of LVH but not diastolic dysfunction (n=864). Conclusions In CKD patients, hs-TnT is strongly associated with alterations of left ventricular structure and diastolic dysfunction for both estimated glomerular filtration rate strata. Baseline hs-TnT levels are predictive of new LVH on follow-up.

Project description:Background The function of high-density lipoprotein can change from protective to proatherosclerotic under inflammatory conditions. Herein, we studied whether inflammation could modify the relationship between high-density lipoprotein level and risk of adverse outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease . Methods and Results In total, 1864 patients from the prospective KNOW-CKD (Korean Cohort Study for Outcome in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease) were enrolled. The main predictor was high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level. Presence of inflammation was defined by hs-CRP (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein) level of ≥1.0 mg/L. The primary outcome was extended major adverse cardiovascular events. During 9231.2 person-years of follow-up, overall incidence of the primary outcome was 15.8 per 1000 person-years. In multivariable Cox analysis after adjusting for confounders, HDL-C level was not associated with the primary outcome. There was a significant interaction between the inflammatory status and HDL-C for risk of extended major adverse cardiovascular events (P=0.003). In patients without inflammation, the hazard ratios (HRs) (95% CIs) for HDL-C levels <40, 50 to 59, and ≥60 mg/dL were 1.10 (0.50-1.82), 0.95 (0.50-1.82), and 0.42 (0.19-0.95), respectively, compared with HDL-C of 40 to 49 mg/dL. However, the significant association for HDL-C ≥60 mg/dL was not seen after Bonferroni correction. In patients with inflammation, we observed a trend toward increased risk of extended major adverse cardiovascular events in higher HDL-C groups (HRs [95% CIs], 0.73 [0.37-1.43], 1.24 [0.59-2.61], and 1.56 [0.71-3.45], respectively), but without statistical significance. Conclusions The association between HDL-C level and adverse cardiovascular outcomes showed reverse trends based on inflammation status in Korean patients with chronic kidney disease.
