The Risk of Adverse Events in Patients With Polycystic Kidney Disease With Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease.

ABSTRACT: Background:Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) leads to progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD) with a subsequent risk of adverse events such as cardiac disease, infections, end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), and mortality. Objectives:To determine the risks of CKD-related adverse outcomes in patients with PKD compared with patients without PKD. Setting:Canadian study of prediction of death, dialysis and interim cardiovascular events (CanPREDDICT) was a prospective pan-Canadian cohort study from 2008-2013 involving 28 facilities with adjudicated outcomes. Patients:Adult CKD patients (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] = 15-45 mL/min/1.73 m2) under the care of a nephrologist. Measurements:Polycystic kidney disease as identified by the treating physician. Methods:Patients with PKD (PKD) and non-PKD were propensity score (PS) matched (1:4) using demographics, comorbidities, and laboratory values. We used conditional Cox proportional hazards models to examine the risk of cardiac disease (defined as coronary artery disease or congestive heart failure), infection, ESKD, or all-cause mortality in patients with PKD compared with no PKD. Results:Among a total of 2370 patients, 105 with PKD were matched with 416 without PKD with a baseline mean age and eGFR of 62.6 years and 27.8 mL/min, respectively. During 1680 person-years of follow time (median follow-up: 3.8 years), there were a total of 43 cardiac, 83 ESKD, 117 infectious, and 39 all-cause mortality events. PKD was associated with a higher risk of cardiac events (9.5% vs 7.9%, hazard ratio [HR] = 1.46, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.04-2.04) and ESKD (25.7% vs 13.5%, HR = 2.00, 95% CI = 1.33-3.01), and with similar risks for infection (21.9% vs 22.6%, HR = 1.16, 95% CI = 0.75-1.82) or all-cause mortality (6.7% vs 7.7%, HR = 0.87, 95% CI = 0.40-1.91) compared with non-PKD. There were no differences in the types of infections (urinary, respiratory, hematologic, or other) between the 2 groups (P = .585). Conclusions:Patients with PKD with advanced CKD are at a potentially higher risk of ESKD and cardiac events compared with patients without PKD. These findings, if confirmed in larger cohorts, suggest that monitoring and treatment for adverse outcomes in patients with PKD, especially related to cardiac disease, may be beneficial.

Project description:ImportancePopulation-based data are needed to inform the safe prescribing of fluoroquinolone antibiotics to patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD).ObjectiveTo quantify the 14-day risk of a hospital visit with nervous system and/or psychiatric disorders, hypoglycemia, or a collagen-associated event in patients with advanced CKD newly prescribed a fluoroquinolone at a higher vs a lower dose.Design, setting, and participantsThis population-based cohort study in Ontario, Canada (January 1, 2008, to March 17, 2020) used linked health care data to identify new users of fluoroquinolone antibiotics. Participants included adults 66 years or older with advanced CKD (an estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] <30 mL/min/1.73 m2 but not receiving dialysis). Data analysis was performed from January 1 to April 30, 2021.ExposuresA new prescription for a higher-dose fluoroquinolone (ciprofloxacin, 501-1000 mg/d; levofloxacin, 501-750 mg/d; or norfloxacin, 401-800 mg/d) vs a lower-dose fluoroquinolone (ciprofloxacin, 500 mg/d; levofloxacin, 250-500 mg/d; or norfloxacin, 400 mg/d).Main outcomes and measureThe primary outcome was the 14-day risk of a hospital visit with nervous system and/or psychiatric disorders, hypoglycemia, or a collagen-associated event. Secondary outcomes included a hospital visit with sepsis, retinal detachment or other tendinopathies, all-cause hospitalization, all-cause mortality, and sudden cardiac death. Inverse probability of treatment weighting on the propensity score was used to balance comparison groups on baseline health. Weighted risk ratios and risk differences were obtained using modified Poisson regression and binomial regression, respectively.ResultsOf 11 917 patients (median age, 83 years [IQR, 77-89 years]; 7438 women [62.4%]; median eGFR, 25 [IQR, 21-28] mL/min/1.73 m2) included in the analysis, 5482 (46.0%) received a higher-dose and 6435 (54.0%) received a lower-dose fluoroquinolone. After weighting, the primary composite outcome-a hospital visit with nervous system and/or psychiatric disorders, hypoglycemia, or a collagen-associated event-occurred in 68 of 5482 patients (1.2%) treated with a higher-dose fluoroquinolone and in 47 of 5516 (0.9%) treated with a lower-dose fluoroquinolone (weighted risk ratio, 1.45 [95% CI, 1.01-2.08]; weighted risk difference, 0.39% [95% CI, 0.01%-0.76%]). The risk of sepsis, retinal detachment, all-cause hospitalization, all-cause mortality, and sudden cardiac death did not differ significantly between groups.Conclusions and relevanceThese findings suggest that older patients with advanced CKD who were prescribed a fluoroquinolone at a higher-than-recommended dose were significantly more likely to experience the composite outcome of a hospital visit with nervous system and/or psychiatric disorders, hypoglycemia, or a collagen-associated event, although the absolute risk of these events was less than 2%.

Project description:ImportanceThere are limited data for the utility of statins for primary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and death in adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD).ObjectiveTo evaluate the association of statin use with all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) among US veterans older than 65 years with CKD stages 3 to 4.Design, setting, and participantsThis cohort study used a target trial emulation design for statin initiation among veterans with moderate CKD (stages 3 or 4) using nested trials with a propensity weighting approach. Linked Veterans Affairs (VA) Healthcare System, Medicare, and Medicaid data were used. This study considered veterans newly diagnosed with moderate CKD between 2005 and 2015 in the VA, with follow-up through December 31, 2017. Veterans were older than 65 years, within 5 years of CKD diagnosis, had no prior ASCVD or statin use, and had at least 1 clinical visit in the year prior to trial baseline. Eligibility criteria were assessed for each nested trial, and Cox proportional hazards models with bootstrapping were run. Analysis was conducted from July 2021 to October 2023.ExposureStatin initiation vs none.Main outcomes and measuresPrimary outcome was all-cause mortality; secondary outcome was time to first MACE (myocardial infarction, transient ischemic attack, stroke, revascularization, or mortality).ResultsIncluded in the analysis were 14 828 veterans. Mean (SD) age at CKD diagnosis was 76.9 (8.2) years, 14 616 (99%) were men, 10 539 (72%) White, and 2568 (17%) Black. After expanding to person-trials and assessing eligibility at each baseline, there were 151 243 person-trials (14 685 individuals) of nonstatin initiators and 2924 person-trials (2924 individuals) of statin initiators included. Propensity score adjustment via overlap weighting with nonparametric bootstrapping resulted in covariate balance, with mean (SD) follow-up of 3.6 (2.7) years. The hazard ratio for all-cause mortality was 0.91 (95% CI, 0.85-0.97) comparing statin initiators to noninitiators. The hazard ratio for MACE was 0.96 (95% CI, 0.91-1.02). Results remained consistent in prespecified subgroup analyses.Conclusions and relevanceIn this target trial emulation of statin initiation in US veterans older than 65 years with CKD stages 3 to 4 and no prior ASCVD, statin initiation was significantly associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality but not MACE. Results should be confirmed in a randomized clinical trial.
