Estimated GFR Before and After Bariatric Surgery in CKD.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Several reviews have recently detailed the beneficial effects of weight loss surgery for kidney function. However, these studies have a number of limitations, including small sample size, few done in chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3 and 4, and many not including the main bariatric surgery procedures used in the United States today. STUDY DESIGN:This was an observational retrospective cohort study comparing propensity score-matched bariatric surgery patients and nonsurgery control patients who were referred for, but did not have, surgery. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy were also compared using propensity matching. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS:Patients (714 surgery patients; 714 controls) were from a large integrated health care system, a mean of 58±8 (SD) years old, and mostly women (77%) and non-Hispanic whites (56%) and had diabetes mellitus (66%) and/or hypertension (91%). PREDICTOR:Predictors at the time of surgery or referral to surgery were age, sex, race/ethnicity, weight, and presence of diabetes and/or hypertension. OUTCOMES:The primary outcome for this study was change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from serum creatinine level over a median 3-year follow-up period. MEASUREMENTS:Serum creatinine was used to calculate eGFR using the CKD-EPI (CKD Epidemiology Collaboration) creatinine equation. RESULTS:Surgery patients had 9.84 (95% CI, 8.05-11.62) mL/min/1.73m2 greater eGFRs than controls at a median 3 years' follow-up and RYGB patients had 6.60 (95% CI, 3.42-9.78) mL/min/1.73m2 greater eGFRs than sleeve gastrectomy patients during the same period. LIMITATIONS:This study is limited by its nonrandomized observational study design, estimation of GFR, and large changes in muscle mass, which may affect serum creatinine level independent of changes in kidney function. CONCLUSIONS:Bariatric surgery, especially the RYGB procedure, results in significant improvements for up to 3 years in eGFRs for patients with CKD stages 3 and 4.

Project description:Rationale & objectiveDetermining whether a change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) or albuminuria is clinically significant requires knowledge of short-term within-person variability of the measurements, which few studies have addressed in the setting of chronic kidney disease.Study designCross-sectional study with multiple collections over less than 4 weeks.Setting & participantsClinically stable outpatients with chronic kidney disease (N=50; mean age, 56.8 years; median eGFR, 40mL/min/1.73m2; median urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR), 173mg/g).ExposureRepeat measurements from serially collected samples across 3 study visits.OutcomesMeasurements of urine albumin concentration (UAC), UACR, and plasma creatinine, cystatin C, β2-microglobulin (B2M), and beta trace protein (BTP).Analytical approachWe calculated within-person coefficients of variation (CVw) values and corresponding reference change positive and negative (RCVpos and RCVneg) values using log-transformed measurements.ResultsMedian CVw (RCVpos; RCVneg) values of filtration markers were 5.4% (+16%; -14%) for serum creatinine, 4.1% (+12%; -11%) for cystatin C, 7.4% (+23%; -18%) for BTP, and 5.6% (+17%; -14%) for B2M. Results for albuminuria were 33.2% (+145%; -59%) for first-morning UAC, 50.6% (+276%; -73%) for random spot UAC, 32.5% (+141%; -58%) for first-morning UACR, and 29.7% (124%; -55%) for random spot UACR. CVw values for filtration markers were comparable across the range of baseline eGFRs. CVw values for UAC and UACR were comparable across the range of baseline albuminuria values.LimitationsSmall sample size limits the ability to detect differences in variability across markers. Participants were recruited and followed up in a clinical and not research setting, so some preanalytical factors could not be controlled.ConclusionseGFR markers appear to have relatively low short-term within-person variability, whereas variability in albuminuria appears to be high, making it difficult to distinguish random variability from meaningful biologic changes.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Low ankle-brachial index (ABI) is associated with increases in serum creatinine level. Whether low ABI is associated with the development of rapid estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline, stage 3 chronic kidney disease (CKD), or microalbuminuria is uncertain. STUDY DESIGN:Prospective cohort study. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS:Framingham Offspring cohort participants who attended the sixth (1995-1998) and eighth (2005-2008) examinations. PREDICTOR:ABI, categorized as normal (>1.1 to <1.4), low-normal (>0.9 to 1.1), and low (?0.9). OUTCOMES:Rapid eGFR decline (eGFR decline ?3 mL/min/1.73 m(2) per year), incident stage 3 CKD (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m(2)), incident microalbuminuria. MEASUREMENTS:GFR was estimated using the serum creatinine-based CKD-EPI (CKD Epidemiology Collaboration) equation. Urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) was determined based on spot urine samples. RESULTS:During 9.5 years, 9.0% (232 of 2,592) experienced rapid eGFR decline and 11.1% (270 of 2,426) developed stage 3 CKD. Compared to normal ABI, low ABI was associated with 5.73-fold increased odds of rapid eGFR decline (95% CI, 2.77-11.85; P<0.001) after age, sex, and baseline eGFR adjustment; this persisted after multivariable adjustment for standard CKD risk factors (OR, 3.60; 95% CI, 1.65-7.87; P = 0.001). After adjustment for age, sex, and baseline eGFR, low ABI was associated with a 2.51-fold increased odds of stage 3 CKD (OR, 2.51; 95% CI, 1.16-5.44; P = 0.02), although this was attenuated after multivariable adjustment (OR, 1.68; 95% CI, 0.75-3.76; P = 0.2). In 1,902 free of baseline microalbuminuria, low ABI was associated with increased odds of microalbuminuria after adjustment for age, sex, and baseline UACR (OR, 2.81; 95% CI, 1.07-7.37; P = 0.04), with attenuation upon further adjustment (OR, 1.88; P = 0.1). LIMITATIONS:Limited number of events with low ABI. Outcomes based on single serum creatinine and UACR measurements at each examination. CONCLUSIONS:Low ABI is associated with an increased risk of rapid eGFR decline, suggesting that systemic atherosclerosis predicts a decrease in kidney function.

Project description:ImportanceAmong women and men with severe obesity, evidence for improvement in urinary incontinence beyond the first year after bariatric surgery-induced weight loss is lacking.ObjectivesTo examine change in urinary incontinence before and after bariatric surgery and to identify factors associated with improvement and remission among women and men in the first 3 years after bariatric surgery.Design, setting, and participantsThe Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery 2 is an observational cohort study at 10 US hospitals in 6 geographically diverse clinical centers. Participants were recruited between February 21, 2005, and February 17, 2009. Adults undergoing first-time bariatric surgical procedures as part of clinical care by participating surgeons between March 14, 2006, and April 24, 2009, were followed up for 3 years (through October 24, 2012).InterventionParticipants undergoing bariatric surgery completed research assessments before the procedure and annually thereafter.Main outcomes and measuresThe frequency and type of urinary incontinence episodes in the past 3 months were assessed using a validated questionnaire. Prevalent urinary incontinence was defined as at least weekly urinary incontinence episodes, and remission was defined as change from prevalent urinary incontinence at baseline to less than weekly urinary incontinence episodes at follow-up.ResultsOf 2458 participants, 1987 (80.8%) completed baseline and follow-up assessments. At baseline, the median age was 47 years (age range, 18-78 years), the median body mass index was 46 kg/m2 (range, 34-94 kg/m2), and 1565 of 1987 (78.8%) were women. Urinary incontinence was more prevalent among women (49.3%; 95% CI, 46.9%-51.9%) than men (21.8%; 95% CI, 18.2%-26.1%) (P < .001). After a mean 1-year weight loss of 29.5% (95% CI, 29.0%-30.1%) in women and 27.0% (95% CI, 25.9%-28.6%) in men, year 1 urinary incontinence prevalence was significantly lower among women (18.3%; 95% CI, 16.4%-20.4%) and men (9.8%; 95% CI, 7.2%-13.4%) (P < .001 for all). The 3-year prevalence was higher than the 1-year prevalence for both sexes (24.8%; 95% CI, 21.8%-26.5% among women and 12.2%; 95% CI, 9.0%-16.4% among men) but was substantially lower than baseline (P < .001 for all). Weight loss was independently related to urinary incontinence remission (relative risk, 1.08; 95% CI, 1.06-1.10 in women and 1.07; 95% CI, 1.02-1.13 in men) per 5% weight loss, as were younger age and the absence of a severe walking limitation.Conclusions and relevanceAmong women and men with severe obesity, bariatric surgery was associated with substantially reduced urinary incontinence over 3 years. Improvement in urinary incontinence may be an important benefit of bariatric surgery.
