Impact of primary aldosteronism on renal function in patients with type 2 diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Aims/introduction

Renal dysfunction might quickly progress in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, when accompanied by hypertension. However, whether primary aldosteronism (PA), which autonomously over-secretes aldosterone, causes additional renal damage in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is unclear. We evaluated the impact of PA on renal function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Materials and methods

A retrospective review of all patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who visited Yokohama Rosai Hospital's (Yokohama Japan) outpatient department between April 2017 and March 2018 was carried out. Records of patients with PA who underwent PA treatment by adrenalectomy or mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (PA group) and those without PA (non-PA group) were extracted, and renal function was compared between the two groups. Untreated PA patients were excluded, as their renal function might be overestimated as a result of glomerular hyperfiltration.

Results

There were 83 patients in the PA group and 1,580 patients in the non-PA group. The PA group had significantly lower estimated glomerular filtration rates than the non-PA group (66.3 [52.4-78.2] vs 70.5 [56.0-85.6] mL/min/1.73 m² , P = 0.047). Multiple regression analysis showed that PA was a factor for decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate, independent of age, sex, glycated hemoglobin, diuretic use and hypertension (P = 0.025). PA induced a 3.7-mL/min/1.73 m² (95% confidence interval 0.47-6.9) decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate, equivalent to that induced by 4.4 years of aging.

Conclusions

Our results show that in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, PA is an independent risk factor for renal dysfunction. To prevent the progression of renal failure, PA should not be overlooked.

Project description:BackgroundIndonesia through its government National Health Insurance System has launched a non-communicable and chronic disease management program named Indonesian Chronic Disease Management Program (PROLANIS), with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and hypertension as the main focus. However, study that evaluates the clinical impact of PROLANIS in patients with T2DM is still scarce to this date. This study aims to evaluate the metabolic control and renal function of PROLANIS participants with T2DM every six month within the first 18-months of implementation.MethodsThis study was a retrospective cohort study conducted at Wates sub-district, East Java using secondary data from PROLANIS group report from April 2018 to October 2019. The study population was T2DM patients who voluntarily joined the PROLANIS group in April 2018. The six-month-evaluation included metabolic parameters [body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, hemoglobin A1C, total cholesterol, high-density lipid, low-density lipid, and triglyceride (TG)] and renal parameters [blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine serum, and urinary microalbumin]. Paired t-test and wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for the analysis, and the P-value was adjusted using Bonferroni correction. A P-value < .0015 was considered statistically significant, while a P-value between .0015 and .003 was considered as marginally significant.ResultsA total of 30 participants were included in the analysis. Following the PROLANIS implementation, the only parameter of metabolic control that showed significant improvement was TG serum level (P < .001). Despite the worsening status of other metabolic parameters, the changes were not statistically significant except for BMI that was marginally significant (P = .002). From renal function, only BUN serum level was significantly deteriorated (P < .001), while the others did not significantly change.ConclusionPROLANIS implementation in our study population seems to be ineffective. Future study with more primary healthcare centers needs to be done to scrutinize the clinical impact of this program nationwide.

Project description:Primary aldosteronism (PA) may induce significant decline of renal function and structural damage of kidney. However, it is difficult to evaluate accurate renal function in patients with PA, because glomerular hyperfiltration and aldosterone escape can conceal renal impairment. In this retrospective cohort study, we compared changes in renal function after unilateral adrenalectomy between patients with PA and patients with other adrenal diseases. Risk factors associated with postoperative renal impairment in patients with PA were analyzed.A total of 558 patients who received unilateral adrenalectomy between January 2002 and June 2013 were included: 136 patients with PA and 422 patients with other adrenal diseases (control). Postoperative serial changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were analyzed in both groups. Multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors of renal impairment after adrenalectomy in all patients and the PA group. Postoperative renal impairment was defined as postoperative eGFR decline of >25% from preoperative eGFR. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was defined as an eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m.There were no differences in preoperative eGFR between groups. The PA group showed a significant decrease in eGFR 3 days, 2 weeks, and 6 months after surgery compared to the control group. The PA group showed significant improvement of hypertension after surgery. In the PA group, 53 (39.0%) patients showed postoperative renal impairment. Multivariate regression analysis identified long-standing hypertension, low body mass index, low serum potassium, and high preoperative eGFR as risk factors for postoperative renal impairment. Among the 89 patients with preoperative eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m, 29 (32.6%) patients developed CKD postoperatively. Age, low serum potassium, low preoperative eGFR, and high serum cholesterol or uric acid were associated with the postoperative CKD development.Our study demonstrates that patients with PA with old age, low serum potassium, long-standing hypertension, and high serum uric acid or cholesterol are at risk of renal impairment after surgical treatment. High preoperative eGFR was also a risk factor for postoperative renal impairment, whereas low preoperative eGFR was a risk factor for postoperative CKD. Close monitoring of renal function and adequate management are required for patients with these risk factors.
