Characteristics and Outcomes of Patients With Aortic Stenosis and Chronic Kidney Disease.

ABSTRACT: Background We sought to study longer term survival in patients with aortic stenosis ( AS ) and nondialysis chronic kidney disease ( CKD ). Methods and Results We studied 839 patients (aged 78±9 years and 51% male) with CKD and AS on echocardiogram from 2005 to 2012. Longer term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality was compared with a CKD group without AS , propensity matched for age, sex, race, left ventricular ejection fraction and CKD stage. Cox models were used to evaluate all-cause mortality and competing-risks regression models censored at time of aortic valve replacement to evaluate cardiac mortality in patients with AS and CKD . Overall, 511 (61%), 252 (30%), and 76 (9%) patients had CKD stages 3a, 3b, and 4, respectively; 93% had hypertension, 28% had diabetes mellitus, and 37% had coronary artery disease. In total, 185 (22%) had mild AS, 355 (42%) had moderate AS, and 299 (36%) had severe AS (66 symptomatic). Patients with CKD and AS had higher cardiac and all-cause mortality compared with controls with CKD and no AS ( P<0.001). Among patients with AS and CKD , there were 156 (19%) aortic valve replacements and 454 (54%) deaths (203 cardiac deaths) at 4.0±2.3 years of follow-up. Lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (hazard ratio per 10 mL/min per 1.73 m²: 1.18; 95% CI, 1.08-1.29) was associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality but not cardiac mortality (hazard ratio: 1.12; 95% CI, 0.97-1.30; P=0.13). Of patients undergoing aortic valve replacement, 61% had improvement in estimated glomerular filtration rate within 1 year (median percentage change=+2.8% per month). Conclusions Among patients with nondialysis CKD , AS is associated with significantly higher cardiac and all-cause mortality; lower estimated glomerular filtration rate is associated with increased mortality, and aortic valve replacement was associated with improved survival.

Project description:BackgroundAortic valve stenosis (AS) has a high prevalence and poor prognosis in patients who receive maintenance dialysis. However, few large-scale observational studies in Japan have investigated patients with AS who underwent dialysis. In this study, we investigated the prevalence and factors associated with AS in Japanese patients who underwent dialysis.MethodsIn this cross-sectional analysis, we enrolled patients who underwent dialysis and transthoracic echocardiography between July 1, 2017 and June 30, 2018. Patients with a maximum aortic jet velocity (Vmax) ≥ 2.0 m/s, pressure gradient (PG) between the left ventricle and ascending aorta (mean PG) ≥ 20 mmHg, or aortic valve area (AVA) ≤ 1.0 cm2 were categorized into the AS group (G1). Patients with Vmax ≥ 3.0 m/s, mean PG ≥ 20 mmHg, or AVA ≤ 1.0 cm2 were categorized into the moderate and severe AS groups (G2). We performed multivariate logistic regression analysis and compared G1 and G2 with the non-AS group to determine the risk factors for AS. We also investigated the risk factors for aortic valve calcification, which is a pre-stage for AS.ResultsOf the 2,786 patients investigated, 555 (20.0%) and 193 (6.9%) were categorized into G1 and G2, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age, long-term dialysis, and elevated serum phosphorus levels were associated with AS in both the groups (p < 0.05). These factors were converted into ordinal categories, and a multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed. Patients with serum phosphorus levels measuring 5.0-5.9 mg/dL and > 6.0 mg/dL showed a higher risk of AS than those with serum phosphorus levels measuring < 4.0 mg/dL (odds ratio 2.24, p = 0.01 and odds ratio 2.66, p = 0.005, respectively). Aortic valve calcification was associated with age, long-term dialysis, diabetes mellitus, administration of vitamin D receptor activators, elevated serum calcium levels, and anemia (p < 0.05 for all).ConclusionsPatients on dialysis showed a high prevalence of AS, which was associated with age, long-term dialysis, and elevated serum phosphorus levels.Trial registrationUMIN000026756 , registered on March 29, 2017.
