Association of blood pressure with clinical outcomes in older adults with chronic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:in chronic kidney disease (CKD), hypertension is associated with poor outcomes at ages <70 years. At older ages, this association is unclear. We tested 10-year mortality and cardiovascular outcomes by clinical systolic blood pressure (SBP) in older CKD Stages 3 and 4 patients without diabetes or proteinuria. METHODS:retrospective cohort in population representative primary care electronic medical records linked to hospital data from the UK. CKD staged by CKD-EPI equation (?2 creatinine measurements ?90 days apart). SBPs were 3-year medians before baseline, with mean follow-up 5.7 years. Cox competing models accounted for mortality. RESULTS:about 158,713 subjects with CKD3 and 6,611 with CKD4 met inclusion criteria. Mortality increased with increasing CKD stage in all subjects aged >60. In the 70 plus group with SBPs 140-169 mmHg, there was no increase in mortality, versus SBP 130-139. Similarly, SBPs 140-169 mmHg were not associated with increased incident heart failure, stroke or myocardial infarctions. SBPs <120 mmHg were associated with increased mortality and cardiovascular risk. At ages 60-69, there was increased mortality at SBP <120 and SBP >150 mmHg.Results were little altered after excluding those with declining SBPs during 5 years before baseline, or for longer-term outcomes (5-10 years after baseline). CONCLUSIONS:in older primary care patients, CKD3 or 4 was the dominant outcome predictor. SBP 140-169 mmHg having little additional predictive value, <120 mmHg was associated with increased mortality. Prospective studies of representative older adults with CKD are required to establish optimum BP targets.

Project description:AimsThis study aimed to assess the effect of blood pressure (BP) index, in terms of level and variability, on the progression of cardiovascular and renal diseases in patients with both heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods and resultsThe study involved patients with HF and CKD from the database of the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) study. The study endpoint includes the following: (i) primary endpoint, including cardiovascular disease (CVD) events, renal events, and all-cause death; (ii) CVD events; (iii) renal events; and (iv) all-cause death. Among 3939 participants in the CRIC study, a total of 382 patients were included. The duration of the follow-up was 6.3 ± 2.7 years, the age was 60.2 ± 8.9 years, and 57.6% were male. BP index included 20 indicators in relation to BP level and variability, 4 of which were analysed including baseline systolic BP (SBP), standard deviation of SBP, coefficient of variation of diastolic BP (DBP CV), and average real variability of pulse pressure. In the Cox regression analysis after adjustment, baseline SBP was significant for the risk of primary endpoint [hazard ratio (HR) 1.22, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.03-1.44, P = 0.02] and renal events (HR 1.54, 95% CI 1.22-1.95, P < 0.001), and DBP CV was significant for the risk of primary endpoint (HR 1.03, 95% CI 1.01-1.06, P = 0.02) and CVD events (HR 1.04, 95% CI 1.02-1.07, P < 0.01). The result of the forest plot depicted that baseline SBP had a linear association with the risk of CVD and renal events (P = 0.04 and 0.001, respectively) and DBP CV with CVD events (P = 0.02). As the restricted cubic spline models displayed, DBP CV featured a J- or L-curved association with the primary endpoint, renal events, and all-cause death (P for nonlinearity = 0.01, <0.001, and 0.01, respectively).ConclusionsThe baseline SBP and DBP CV may remain significant for clinical outcomes in patients with both HF and CKD. The increase in baseline SBP is associated with a higher risk of primary endpoint, CVD events, and renal events, and the increase in DBP CV with a higher risk of CVD events. Concerning nonlinear association, DBP CV features a J- or L-curved relationship with the primary endpoint, renal events, and all-cause death, with a higher risk at both low and high values.Trial registrationhttps://www.Clinicaltrialsgov; unique identifier: NCT00304148.

Project description:ImportanceOptimal blood pressure (BP) management in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) slows progression to end-stage renal disease. Studies often base progression risk on a single baseline BP measurement, which may underestimate risk.ObjectiveTo determine whether time-varying BP measurements are associated with a higher risk of progression of CKD than baseline BP measurements.Design, setting, and participantsThe ongoing longitudinal, prospective cohort study Chronic Kidney Disease in Children (CKID) recruited children from January 19, 2005, through March 19, 2014, from pediatric nephrology centers across North America, with data collected at annual study visits. Participants included children aged 1 to 16 years with a diagnosis of CKD and a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of 30 to 90 mL/min/1.73 m2. Data were analyzed from February 11, 2005, through February 13, 2018.ExposuresOffice BP measurement classified as less than 50th percentile, 50th to less than 90th percentile, or at least 90th percentile. Blood pressure categories were treated as time fixed (baseline) or time varying (updated at each visit) in models.Main outcomes and measuresA composite renal outcome (50% GFR reduction from baseline, estimated GFR less than 15 mL/min/1.73 m2, or dialysis or transplant). Pooled logistic models using inverse probability weighting estimated the hazard odds ratio (HOR) of the composite outcome associated with each BP category stratified by CKD diagnosis.ResultsA total of 844 children (524 [62.1%] male; median age, 11 [interquartile range, 8-15] years; 151 [17.9%] black; 580 [68.7%] with nonglomerular CKD; and 264 [31.3%] with glomerular CKD) with complete baseline data and median follow-up of 4 (interquartile range, 2-6) years were included. One hundred ninety-six participants with nonglomerular diagnoses (33.8%) and 99 with glomerular diagnoses (37.5%) reached the composite outcome. Baseline systolic BP in at least the 90th percentile was associated with a higher risk of the composite outcome (HOR for nonglomerular disease, 1.58 [95% CI, 1.07-2.32]; HOR for glomerular disease, 2.85 [95% CI, 1.64-4.94]) compared with baseline systolic BP in less than the 50th percentile. Time-fixed estimates were substantially lower compared with time-varying systolic BP percentile categories (HOR among those with nonglomerular CKD, 3.75 [95% CI, 2.53-5.57]; HOR among those with glomerular diagnoses, 5.96 [95% CI, 3.37-10.54]) comparing those at or above the 90th percentile vs below the 50th percentile. Adjusted models (adjusted for proteinuria and use of antihypertensives) attenuated the risk in nonglomerular CKD (adjusted HOR for baseline measurement, 1.52 [95% CI, 0.98-2.36]; adjusted HOR for time-varying measurement, 2.25 [95% CI, 1.36-3.72]) and in glomerular CKD (adjusted HOR for baseline, 0.97 [95% CI, 0.39-2.36]; adjusted HOR for time-varying measurement, 1.41 [95% CI, 0.65-3.03]). Similar results were observed for diastolic BP.Conclusions and relevanceAmong children with nonglomerular CKD included in this study, elevated time-varying BP measurements were associated with a greater risk of CKD progression compared with baseline BP measurement. This finding suggests that previous studies using only baseline BP likely underestimated the association between BP and CKD progression.
