Association between health related quality of life and progression of chronic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT: The impact of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) on outcomes remains unclear in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients despite its importance in socioeconomic aspects and individual health. We aim to identify the relationship between HRQOL and progression of CKD in pre-dialysis patients. A total 1622 patients with CKD were analyzed in the KoreaN cohort Study for Outcomes in patients With Chronic Kidney Disease, a prospective cohort study. CKD progression was defined as one or more of the following: initiation of dialysis or transplantation, a two-fold increase in baseline serum creatinine levels, or a 50% decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate during the follow-up period. The group with CKD progression had lower scores of HRQOL than the group without CKD progression. A fully adjusted Cox proportional hazard ratio model showed that each low baseline physical and mental component summary score was associated with a higher risk of CKD progression. In Kaplan-Meier survival analysis using propensity score matched data, only low physical component summary scores showed statistical significance with CKD progression. Our study highlights low physical component summary score for an important prognostic factor of CKD progression. Risk-modification interventions for high-risk patients may provide benefits to individuals.

Project description:Background and objectiveThe United States government spends over $85 billion annually on treating non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD). Patients with CKD are prescribed a multitude of medications to manage numerous comorbidities associated with CKD. Thus, this study aims to investigate the association between polypharmacy and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in non-dialysis CKD patients.MethodsThis cross-sectional study utilized data from the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) from 2010 through 2019. We classified polypharmacy into three groups based on the number of medication classes: ≤ 4 (minor polypharmacy), 5 through 9 (major polypharmacy), and ≥ 10 (hyperpolypharmacy). To measure HRQoL, a Physical Component Summary (PCS) and a Mental Component Summary (MCS) were obtained from the 12-item Short-Form Health Survey version 2 and Veteran's Rand 12 item. We applied multivariable ordinary least squares regression to assess the association between polypharmacy and HRQoL in non-dialysis CKD patients.ResultsA total of 649 CKD patients (weighted n = 667,989) were included. Patients with minor polypharmacy, major polypharmacy, and hyperpolypharmacy were 22.27%, 48.24%, and 29.48%, respectively. Major polypharmacy and hyperpolypharmacy were significantly and negatively associated with lower PCS scores when compared with minor polypharmacy [Beta = -3.12 (95% CI: -3.62, -2.62), p-value<0.001; Beta = -4.13 (95CI: -4.74, -3.52), p-value<0.001]. Similarly, major polypharmacy and hyperpolypharmacy were significantly and negatively associated with lower MCS scores when compared to minor polypharmacy [Beta = -0.38 (95% CI: -0.55, -0.20), p-value<0.001; Beta = -1.70 (95% CI: -2.01, -1.40), p-value<0.001]. The top 5 classes of medications used by CKD patients were antihyperlipidemic (56.31%), beta-adrenergic blockers (49.71%), antidiabetics (42.14%), analgesics (42.17%), and diuretics (39.65%).ConclusionOur study found that both major polypharmacy and hyperpolypharmacy were associated with lower HRQoL among non-dialysis CKD patients. This study highlights the need for further evaluation of the combination of medications taken by non-dialysis CKD patients to minimize unnecessary and inappropriate medication use.

Project description:BackgroundChronic kidney disease-associated pruritus (CKD-aP) is a common and burdensome condition for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients, especially those receiving haemodialysis. High-quality evidence of the relationship between CKD-aP and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) can therefore inform clinicians and policymakers about treatment choice and reimbursement decisions.MethodsA systematic literature review and narrative synthesis stratified by study design and HRQoL instrument was conducted to evaluate in adult ESKD patients receiving in-centre haemodialysis the relationship between CKD-aP and HRQoL assessed using multi dimensional generic or condition-specific preference- or non-preference-based measures. MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, BIOSIS Citation Index, Cochrane Library and PsycINFO from inception to March 2020 were searched, with two reviewers extracting data independently.ResultsSearches identified 2684 unique records, of which 20 papers relating to 18 unique studies [5 randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and 13 observational studies] were included. HRQoL was assessed using four generic and eight disease-specific measures. The impact of CKD-aP was assessed by comparison of means, linear regression and correlation. Observational studies employing comprehensively adjusted multivariable linear regression largely found associations between CKD-aP severities and HRQoL. Analyses suggest this relationship is partially mediated by the sleep disturbance caused by CKD-aP. RCTs showing improvements in CKD-aP severity were associated with clinically meaningful improvements in HRQoL. Compared with generic measures, disease-specific HRQoL instruments reported greater changes with reduced CKD-aP. Heterogeneity in study design and reporting precluded meta-analysis.ConclusionsCKD-aP severity was found to be associated with a worsening of HRQoL in the majority of observational and RCT studies. Parallel improvements in CKD-aP and HRQoL with interventions may support their use (PROSPERO registration 175035).
