Short-Term Systolic Blood Pressure Variability and Kidney Disease Progression in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: Results From C-STRIDE.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Background It is unclear whether short-term blood pressure variability is associated with renal outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease. Methods and Results This study analyzed data from participants in the C-STRIDE (Chinese Cohort Study of Chronic Kidney Disease) who had chronic kidney disease stages 1 to 4. Short-term blood pressure variability was measured by calculating the weighted SD (w-SD) of systolic blood pressure (SBP). Renal outcomes were defined as dialysis initiation and/or transplantation. Risk factors associated with w-SD of SBP were evaluated by linear regression. Associations of short-term SBP variability with renal outcomes were evaluated by Cox regression. In total, 1421 patients with chronic kidney disease were included in this study (mean age, 49.4±13.6 years; 56.2% men; estimated glomerular filtration rate, 50.5±29.3 mL/min per 1.73 m2; proteinuria, 0.9 [0.3-2.0] g/d). Mean w-SD of SBP was 12.6±4.4 mm Hg. w-SD of SBP was independently associated with older age, 24-hour SBP, blood pressure circadian pattern, and angiotensin II receptor blocker treatment. During a median follow-up of 4.9 years, 237 patients developed renal outcomes (37.01 per 1000 patient-years). The incidence rate increased across the quartiles of w-SD (log-rank P=0.005). w-SD of SBP was associated with an increased risk of renal outcomes, both as a continuous variable (hazard ratio [HR], 1.47; 95% CI, 1.09-1.99) and as a categorical variable (quartile 4 versus quartile 1: HR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.08-2.36), independent of 24-hour SBP, daytime SBP, and nighttime SBP. Conclusions Short-term SBP was independently associated with the risk of dialysis initiation and/or transplantation in patients with chronic kidney disease.
