Relationship between Cardiac Geometry and Serum Hepcidin in Chronic Kidney Disease: Analysis from the KNOW-CKD Study.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Few studies have examined the relationship between cardiac function and geometry and serum hepcidin levels in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We aimed to identify the relationship between cardiac function and geometry and serum hepcidin levels. METHODS:We reviewed data of 1,897 patients in a large-scale multicenter prospective Korean study. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the relationship between cardiac function and geometry and serum hepcidin levels. RESULTS:The mean relative wall thickness (RWT) and left ventricular mass index (LVMI) were 0.38 and 42.0 g/m2.7, respectively. The mean ejection fraction (EF) and early diastolic mitral inflow to annulus velocity ratio (E/e') were 64.1% and 9.9, respectively. Although EF and E/e' were not associated with high serum hepcidin, RWT and LVMI were significantly associated with high serum hepcidin levels in univariate logistic regression analysis. In multivariate logistic regression analysis after adjusting for variables related to anemia, bone mineral metabolism, comorbidities, and inflammation, however, only each 0.1-unit increase in RWT was associated with increased odds of high serum hepcidin (odds ratio, 1.989; 95% confidence interval, 1.358-2.916; P < 0.001). In the subgroup analysis, the independent relationship between RWT and high serum hepcidin level was valid only in women and patients with low transferrin saturation (TSAT). CONCLUSION:Although the relationship was not cause-and-effect, increased RWT was independently associated with high serum hepcidin, particularly in women and patients with low TSAT. The relationship between cardiac geometry and serum hepcidin in CKD patients needs to be confirmed in future studies.

Project description:Background The function of high-density lipoprotein can change from protective to proatherosclerotic under inflammatory conditions. Herein, we studied whether inflammation could modify the relationship between high-density lipoprotein level and risk of adverse outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease . Methods and Results In total, 1864 patients from the prospective KNOW-CKD (Korean Cohort Study for Outcome in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease) were enrolled. The main predictor was high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level. Presence of inflammation was defined by hs-CRP (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein) level of ≥1.0 mg/L. The primary outcome was extended major adverse cardiovascular events. During 9231.2 person-years of follow-up, overall incidence of the primary outcome was 15.8 per 1000 person-years. In multivariable Cox analysis after adjusting for confounders, HDL-C level was not associated with the primary outcome. There was a significant interaction between the inflammatory status and HDL-C for risk of extended major adverse cardiovascular events (P=0.003). In patients without inflammation, the hazard ratios (HRs) (95% CIs) for HDL-C levels <40, 50 to 59, and ≥60 mg/dL were 1.10 (0.50-1.82), 0.95 (0.50-1.82), and 0.42 (0.19-0.95), respectively, compared with HDL-C of 40 to 49 mg/dL. However, the significant association for HDL-C ≥60 mg/dL was not seen after Bonferroni correction. In patients with inflammation, we observed a trend toward increased risk of extended major adverse cardiovascular events in higher HDL-C groups (HRs [95% CIs], 0.73 [0.37-1.43], 1.24 [0.59-2.61], and 1.56 [0.71-3.45], respectively), but without statistical significance. Conclusions The association between HDL-C level and adverse cardiovascular outcomes showed reverse trends based on inflammation status in Korean patients with chronic kidney disease.

Project description:Background It is unclear whether high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT) is associated with subclinical cardiac changes in chronic kidney disease (CKD). We evaluated the relationship between hs-TnT and left ventricular structure and function in a CKD population, according to estimated glomerular filtration rate. Methods and Results We analyzed 2017 patients with CKD stages 1 to 5 (predialysis) in the KNOW-CKD (Korean Cohort Study for Outcome in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease) cohort. The predictor was hs-TnT level measured at baseline, and the outcomes were left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and systolic and diastolic dysfunction shown by echocardiography at baseline and after 4 years. Participants were categorized into quartiles according to hs-TnT levels. The associations between quartiles of hs-TnT and outcomes were assessed using multivariable logistic regression analysis with confounders including demographics, medical history, and laboratory findings. A receiver operating characteristic curve was used to assess the diagnostic power of hs-TnT for the outcomes as a continuous variable. For subgroup analysis, patients were stratified based on an estimated glomerular filtration rate of 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2. Elevated hs-TnT was associated with LVH and diastolic dysfunction at baseline in an adjusted model but was not associated with systolic dysfunction. These associations remained significant for both estimated glomerular filtration rate subgroups. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that hs-TnT as a continuous variable exhibited fair significance for detection of LVH (area under the curve: 0.689) and diastolic dysfunction (area under the curve: 0.744). Multivariable analysis showed that higher hs-TnT levels at baseline were related to development of LVH but not diastolic dysfunction (n=864). Conclusions In CKD patients, hs-TnT is strongly associated with alterations of left ventricular structure and diastolic dysfunction for both estimated glomerular filtration rate strata. Baseline hs-TnT levels are predictive of new LVH on follow-up.

Project description:BackgroundMetabolic syndrome (MS) is prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Klotho, a protein linked to aging, is closely associated with CKD. Each component of MS and klotho has an association. However, little is known about the association between klotho and MS per se. We investigated the association between serum klotho levels and MS using baseline cross-sectional data obtained from a large Korean CKD cohort.MethodsOf the 2238 subjects recruited in the KoreaN Cohort Study for Outcome in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (KNOW-CKD) between 2011 and 2016, 484 patients with missing data on serum klotho and extreme klotho values (values lower than the detectable range or > 6000 pg/mL) or with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease patients were excluded. The data of the remaining 1754 subjects were included in the present study. MS was defined using the revised National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel (NCEP-ATP) III criteria. Serum klotho levels were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.ResultsMean patient age was 54.9 ± 12.1 years and 1110 (63.3%) were male. The prevalence of MS among all study subjects was 63.7% (n = 1118). The median serum klotho level was 527 pg/mL (interquartile range [IQR]: 418-656 pg/mL). Serum klotho level was significantly lower in MS patients than patients without MS (Median [IQR]; 521 pg/mL [413, 651] vs. 541 pg/mL [427, 676], respectively; P = 0.012). After adjusting for age, sex, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and overt proteinuria, serum klotho was independently associated with MS (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.44; 95% confidence interval, 0.23-0.82; P = 0.010). Furthermore, the adjusted OR for MS was found to be significantly increased at serum klotho levels of < 518 pg/mL (receiver operating characteristic curve cut-off value).ConclusionsSerum klotho was inversely associated with the presence of MS in patients with CKD.Trial registrationThis trial was registered on ClinicalTrials.gov on 26 June 2012 ( https://clinicaltrials.gov;NCT01630486 ).

Project description:Osteoprotegerin, a potent osteoclast activation inhibitor, decreases bone resorption and positively affects bone mineral density. This study examined the association between serum osteoprotegerin levels and bone loss in patients with chronic kidney disease, a condition associated with increased risk of mineral and bone disorders. The bone mineral densities of the lumbar spine, total hip, and femur neck were assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry; serum osteoprotegerin levels were measured at baseline for 1,423 patients enrolled in the prospective KoreaN cohort study for Outcome in patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (KNOW-CKD). Patients aged ≥50 years and with a T-score ≤ -2.5 were diagnosed as having osteoporosis. Multivariable linear regression analysis indicated independent association between serum osteoprotegerin levels and decreased bone mineral density in the lumbar spine (B: -0.489, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.883 to -0.095, P = 0.015), and total hip (B: -0.349, 95% CI: -0.672 to -0.027, P = 0.027). However, bone mineral density of the femur neck was not associated with serum osteoprotegerin levels in women. After adjustments, no independent association was found between serum osteoprotegerin levels and bone mineral density in men. In multivariable logistic regression analysis, serum osteoprotegerin levels were associated with increased risk of osteoporosis in women (odds ratio [OR]: 4.72, 95% CI: 1.35 to 16.52, P = 0.015), but not in men (OR: 0.21; 95% CI: 0.04 to 1.31, P = 0.095). To summarize, in female patients with chronic kidney disease, increased serum osteoprotegerin levels were independently associated with decreased bone mineral density in the lumbar spine and total hip, and with increased risk of osteoporosis. Therefore, the measurement of serum osteoprotegerin concentration might be useful as a surrogate marker for determining bone loss in patients with chronic kidney disease, especially for women, although not so much for men.
