Associations between echocardiographic findings and prospective changes in residual renal function in patients new to peritoneal dialysis.

ABSTRACT: Although echocardiograms are often performed when peritoneal dialysis is started, associations between commonly reported findings and prospective changes in renal function remain understudied. Ninety-nine of 101 patients in the Trio Trial had transthoracic echocardiograms within 6 months of dialysis initiation, and measurements of residual renal function every six weeks for up to two years. Generalized mixed modelling linear regression in STATA was used to examine associations between left atrial size, left ventricular hypertrophy, left ventricular ejection fraction, right ventricular systolic pressure, and left valvular calcification with subsequent slopes in renal function. After echocardiography (performed a median of 16 days following peritoneal dialysis initiation) right ventricular systolic pressure was associated with faster, while declining left ventricular ejection fraction and valvular calcification were associated with slower declines in residual renal function. Future studies could be conducted to confirm these findings, and identify pathophysiological mechanisms.

Project description:♦ BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to assess risk factors for residual renal function (RRF) decline in children during the first/second year of chronic peritoneal dialysis (PD). ♦ METHODS: The study group included 56 children with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) (age 10.13 ± 4.86 years), including 18 on continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD) and 38 on automated PD (APD), in whom we evaluated RRF (daily diuresis [mL/m2/24 h], residual glomerular filtration rate (rGFR) [mL/min/1.73 m2]), etiology of ESRD, PD fluid volume (mL/m2/24 h), glucose load (g/m2/24 h), ultrafiltration (mL/m2/24 h), peritoneal permeability (D/PCrea 4h, D/D0 Glu 4h), dialysis adequacy (twKt/V, twCCr [L/week/1.73 m2]), blood pressure (BP), biochemical parameters, and medications used. Duration of follow-up was 24 months. ♦ RESULTS: Mean diuresis before initiation of PD was 1,394.93 ± 698.37 (mL/m2/24 h), and mean rGFR was 7.41 ± 3.96 (mL/min/1.73 m2). The rate of daily diuresis decline was -529.34 ± 546.28 in the first year and -107.10 ± 291.54 (mL/m2/24 h) in the second year (p = 0.005), and the rate of rGFR decline was -3.35 ± 3.73 in the first year and -1.63 ± 1.85 (mL/min/1.73 m2) in the second year (p = 0.118). Eleven (19.64%) patients became anuric. In univariate analysis, the rate of daily diuresis decline in the first year was related to baseline diuresis (r = -0.29, p = 0.031), proteinuria (r = -0.43, p = 0.001), and systolic BP (r = -0.31, p = 0.020); 12-month changes (Δ0 - 12) in PD fluid volume (r = -0.37, p = 0.004), glucose load (r = -0.28, p = 0.035), and ultrafiltration (r = -0.38, p = 0.004); serum calcium-phosphorus product (r = -0.41, p = 0.002); and Δ0 - 12 body mass index (BMI) Z-score (r = 0.30, p = 0.024); while the rate of rGFR decline in the first year was related only to baseline rGFR (r = -0.57, p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, significant predictors of the rate of daily diuresis decline in the first year were baseline diuresis (β = -0.386, p < 0.001) and proteinuria (β = -0.278, p = 0.017), mean systolic BP Z-score (β = -0.237, p = 0.027), and age at the onset of PD (β = -0.224, p = 0.037), while predictors of the rate of rGFR decline were baseline rGFR (β = -0.607, p < 0.001) and baseline proteinuria (β = -0.225, p = 0.046). In the second year, the only predictors of the rate of rGFR decline were D/D0 Glu 4h (r = 0.44, p = 0.033, univariate analysis) and rGFR at 12 months (β = -0.499, p = 0.044). ♦ CONCLUSION: The most important risk factors for rapid RRF decline in children during the first year of chronic PD include higher baseline daily diuresis and proteinuria, and additional factors are systolic BP and age at the onset of PD; while high baseline GFR and low peritoneal transport status may be the only important factors during the second year.

Project description:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Residual kidney function contributes to the clearance of antibiotics excreted by the kidneys, lowering the antibiotic concentration, which may adversely affect the treatment of peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis. The objective of our study was to examine the relationship between residual kidneyfunction and peritonitis treatment outcomes. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS:Our study included 181 participants who experienced 339 episodes of Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and culture-negative peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis at a single centerfrom 2003 to 2010. Episodes were categorized according to participants' urinary creatinine clearance (0, >0-5, and >5 ml/min). The data were analyzed using generalized estimating equation models to determine the covariate-adjusted association between urinary creatinine clearance and treatment failure (defined as relapse or recurrent peritonitis episodes, peritoneal catheter removal, or death from any cause during peritonitis treatment). RESULTS:Among episodes of peritonitis due to Gram-positive organisms or culture-negative infections, those experienced by participants with urinary creatinine clearance >5 ml/min had significantly higher odds of treatment failure than episodes experienced by anuric participants (27 of 80 versus 20 of 119 episodes resulting in treatment failure for creatinine clearance >5 versus 0 ml/min; odds ratio, 6.80; 95% confidence interval, 2.37 to 19.6). Episodes experienced by participants with creatinine clearance >0-5 ml/min also had significantly higher odds of treatment failure than episodes experienced by anuric participants (14 of 64 episodes resulting in treatment failure for creatinine clearance >0-5 ml/min; odds ratio, 2.87; 95% confidence interval, 1.12 to 7.35). The odds of relapse and recurrent peritonitis among participants with creatinine clearance >5 ml/min was also significantly higher compared with in anuric participants (17 of 80 versus 12 of 119 episodes resulting in relapse and recurrence for creatinine clearance >5 versus 0 ml/min; odds ratio, 6.76; 95% confidence interval, 1.90 to 23.8). Among participants with Gram-negative peritonitis, creatinine clearance was significantly associated with neither treatment failure nor relapse and recurrent peritonitis. CONCLUSIONS:Residual kidney function as measured by greater urinary creatinine clearance was associated with treatment failure among participants with Gram-positive and culture-negative peritonitis.
