ABSTRACT: Background
Urinary 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) has been associated with hypertension in women with elevated urinary cadmium (Cd) excretion rates. The present study investigates the urinary Cd and 20-HETE levels in relation to the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albumin excretion in men and women.Methods
A population-based, cross-sectional study, which included 225 women and 84 men aged 33-55?years, was conducted in a rural area known to be polluted with Cd.Results
In all subjects, lower eGFR values were associated with higher urinary Cd excretion (P?=?0.030), and tubulopathy markers N-acetyl-?-d-glucosaminidase (P?2 lower than that in the hypertensive (P?=?0.009) and normotensive subjects (P?ConclusionsTubulopathy is a determinant of albumin excretion in women, while 20-HETE and SBP are determinants of urinary albumin excretion in men. Associations of chronic exposure to Cd with marked eGFR decline and renal tubular injury seen in both Cd-exposed men and women add to mounting research data that links Cd to the risk of developing chronic kidney disease.
