Project description:Sequential changes in glomerular filtration rate during development of hypertension in the conscious Dahl salt-sensitive rats were determined using a new method for measurement. Using a miniaturized device, disappearance curves of fluorescein isothiocyanate-sinistrin were measured by transcutaneous excitation and real-time detection of the emitted light through the skin. Rats with implanted femoral venous catheters (dye injection and sampling) and carotid catheters (mean arterial pressure by telemetry) were studied, while maintained on a 0.4% NaCl diet and on days 2, 5, 7, 14, and 21 after switching to 4.0% (high-salt [HS]) diet. A separate group of rats were maintained on 0.4% for 21 days as a time control. Mean arterial pressure rose progressively from the last day of 0.4% (130±2 mm Hg) reaching significance by day 5 of HS and averaged 162±7 mm Hg by day 21. Urine albumin excretion was significantly elevated (×3) by day 7 of HS in Dahl salt-sensitive rats. Glomerular filtration rate reduced on day 14 of HS falling from 1.53±0.06 mL/min per 100 g body weight to 1.27±0.04. By day 21, glomerular filtration rate had fallen 28% to 1.1±0.04 mL/min per 100 g (t(1/2) 28.4±1.1 minute.) No significant reductions of creatinine clearance were observed throughout the study in response to HS demonstrating the insensitivity of creatinine clearance measurements even with creatinine measured using mass spectrometry. We conclude that the observed reduction of glomerular filtration rate was a consequence and not a cause of the hypertension and that this noninvasive approach could be used in these conscious Dahl salt-sensitive rats for a longitudinal assessment of renal function.

Project description:Plasma level of total homocysteine (tHcy) is negatively correlated with kidney function in general population. However, the causal mechanism of this correlation is poorly understood. The purpose of this study is to investigate the association of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T gene polymorphism, which is a major genetic determinant of the plasma tHcy level, with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in Chinese.A total of 18 814 hypertensive patients (6,914 males, 11,900 females) were included in the study.Association between the eGFR and MTHFR C677T genotype was examined by sex-specific regression analyses. In males, TT genotype was associated with 1.37 ml/min/1.73 m(2) decrease in eGFR (p = 0.004) and with an increased risk (OR = 1.32, p = 0.008) for the lowest quintile of eGFR after adjusting for age, BMI, and blood pressures. However, such association was not observed in females (p > 0.05). This association suggests MTHFR C677T polymorphism may play a role in the regulation of eGFR in males.MTHFR 677?T is a risk allele for decreased kidney function in Chinese males, implicating this gene in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Project description:ObjectiveIn patients with type 2 diabetes and diabetic kidney disease (DKD), explore the relationship between estimated glomerular filtration rate decline (eGFR-d) and simultaneously assessed vascular risk markers including office, ambulatory or central blood pressure, pulse pressure, carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and renal resistive indexes (RRI).Research design and methodsAt baseline, vascular risk markers were measured in addition to the routine clinical workup. The eGFR-d was based on 2000-2019 creatinine values. Parameters were compared by eGFR-d quartiles. Regression models of eGFR-d and vascular markers were assessed.ResultsIn total, 135 patients were included. Mean age was 63.8 ± 10.8y, baseline eGFR 60.2 ± 26.4 ml/min/1.73 m2 and urine albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR) 49 ± 108 mg/mmol. Mean eGFR-d was based on 43 ± 39 creatinine values within a time span of 7.0 ± 1.9y. The average yearly eGFR decline was -1.8 ± 3.0 ml/min/1.73 m2 ranging from -5.8 ± 2.3 in the first quartile to +1.4 ± 1.7 in the fourth quartile. Mean 24 h systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure were 126 ± 17 and 74 ± 9 mmHg. Mean PWV was 11.8 ± 2.8 m/s, RRI 0.76 ± 0.07 and IMT 0.77 ± 0.21 mm. SBP and pulse pressure correlated with eGFR-d but not DBP. 24 h SBP stood out as a stronger predictor of eGFR-d than office or central SBP. PWV and RRI correlated with eGFR decline in univariate, but not multivariate regression models including 24 SBP and ACR.ConclusionsIn this study, eGFR decline was highly variable in patients with type 2 diabetes and DKD. Twenty-four hour SBP provided an added value to the routine measurement of ACR in predicting eGFR decline, whereas PWV and RRI did not.

Project description:African-Americans are likely to develop hypertension and hypertensive nephrosclerosis. This grave prognosis, coupled with familial aggregation of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in Blacks, prompts a search for genetic risk factors for ESRD. Recent evidence implicates a crucial role for the sympathetic nervous system in progressive renal disease.We used the African-American Study of Kidney Disease to probe whether beta2-adrenergic receptor (ADRB2) predicts glomerular filtration rate (GFR) decline rate. A total of 580 participants were included. Baseline GFR was 51.2 +/- 0.5 ml/min/1.73 m2. Subjects were randomized in a 2 x 3 block design: to intensively lowered (MAP < or = 92 mm Hg) versus 'usual' (MAP = 102-107 mm Hg) blood pressure goal groups, and also divided by three randomized antihypertensive drugs (ramipril, metoprolol, or amlodipine). We scored 4 SNPs at the ADRB2 locus.Haplotypes at ADRB2 predicted chronic GFR decline rate, GFR declined more slowly in individuals with haplotype-1 (-804G-->173T-->16Gly-->27GIn), and faster in those who carried haplotype-3 (-804G-->173T-->16Arg-->27Gln). ADRB2 genotype interacted with antihypertensive drug class to influence GFR slope (p = 0.001-0.037). We extended our findings to an independent case/control sample of Black hypertensive ESRD, in which we found that variant Gly16Arg that tagged the GFR slope-determining ADRB2 haplotype also conferred risk for the ESRD trait in Blacks.The GFR decline/progression rate in hypertensive renal disease is controlled in part by genetic variation within the adrenergic pathway.

Project description:BackgroundThe association between changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) over time and the risk of stroke remains inconclusive. We aimed to evaluate the relation of eGFR change during the China Stroke Primary Prevention Trial (CSPPT) with the risk of first stroke during the subsequent post-trial follow-up.MethodsA total of 11,742 hypertensive participants with two eGFR measurements (median measure interval, 4.4; interquartile range, 4.2-4.6 years) and without a history of stroke from the CSPPT were included in this analysis.ResultsOver a median post-trial follow-up of 4.4 years, 729 first strokes were identified, of which 635 were ischemic, 88 were hemorrhagic, and 6 were uncertain types of strokes. Compared with those with 1 to <2% per year increase in eGFR (with the lowest stroke risk), those with an increase in eGFR of ≥4% per year had significantly increased risks of first stroke (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.96; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.10-3.50) and first ischemic stroke (adjusted HR 2.14; 95% CI, 1.17-3.90). Similarly, those with a decline in eGFR of ≥5% per year also had significantly increased first stroke (adjusted HR 2.13; 95% CI, 1.37-3.31) and first ischemic stroke (adjusted HR 1.89; 95% CI, 1.19-3.02) risk. However, there was no significant association between eGFR change and first hemorrhagic stroke. A similar result was found when the change in eGFR was quantified as an absolute annual change.ConclusionIn Chinese hypertensive patients, both the decline and increase of eGFR levels were independently associated with the risks of first stroke or first ischemic stroke.

Project description:ObjectiveTo estimate the relationship among uric acid (UA), 24-h microalbumin (24 h-MAU) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in hypertensive patients.MethodThe study enrolled adult patients hospitalized in TEDA International Cardiovascular Hospital. The study was used to explore the correlation among UA, 24 h-MAU and eGFR. Univariate analysis was used to compare continuous or categorical data groups according to data type. Multivariate analysis was used to explore the correlation among UA, Log 24 h-MAU and eGFR by linear regression, and the relationship among UA, 24 h-MAU ≥ 30 mg/24 h (increased 24 h-MAU) and eGFR < 90 ml·min-1·1.73 m-2 (mildly decreased eGFR) by logistic regression. Mediation effect analysis was used to explore the mediating effect of increased 24 h-MAU between UA and mildly decreased eGFR. Subgroup analysis was used to investigate the correlation among UA, 24 h-MAU and eGFR in different gender.ResultSeven hundred and thirty-three inpatients were enrolled in the study, including 257 patients with hyperuricemia. The level of UA was 377.8 ± 99.9 μmol/L in all patients enrolled, and it was about 50.1% higher in hyperuricemia group (482.3 ± 58.8 μmol/L vs. 321.4 ± 63.5 μmol/L, P < 0.001). The prevalence of hyperuricemia was 35.1% (95%CI 31.6-38.5%). The univariate regression analysis showed that UA was significant related to Log 24 h-MAU, increased 24 h-MAU, eGFR and mildly decreased eGFR. After adjusted confounding factors, UA was significant related to Log 24 h-MAU (β = 0.163, P < 0.001), eGFR (β = - 0.196, P < 0.001), increased 24 h-MAU (quantitative analysis: OR = 1.045, 95%CI 1.020-1.071, P < 0.001; qualitative analysis: OR = 2.245, 95%CI 1.410-3.572, P = 0.001), but had no significant relationship with mildly decreased eGFR. Mediating effect analysis showed that increased 24 h-MAU partially mediated the relationship between UA and mildly decreased eGFR (relative indirect effect: 25.0% and 20.3% in quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis respectively). In the subgroup analysis, the results were stable and similar to the analysis for entry patients.ConclusionThe prevalence of hyperuricemia was higher in hypertensive inpatients. UA was strongly associated with Log 24 h-MAU, eGFR and increased 24 h-MAU, while the correlation with mildly decreased eGFR was affected by multiple factors. And increased 24 h-MAU might be the intermediate factor between UA and mildly decreased eGFR.

Project description:AIMS:There is uncertainty about which estimated glomerular filtration rate eGFR equation to use in older people with respect to the prediction of prognosis. Our aim was: (i) to compare the discriminative capacity of eGFR estimated by different equations with respect to all-cause mortality; and (ii) to identify the eGFR threshold at which the risk of mortality starts to increase for each equation. METHODS:We used data from 828 community-dwelling older adults aged >65 years enrolled in the InCHIANTI study. The outcome measure was all-cause mortality at 9 years. GFR was estimated by five different equations: Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiological Collaboration (creatinine equation [CKD-EPIcre ], and creatinine and cystatin C equation [CKD-EPIcre-cys ]), Berlin Initiative Study (BIScre and BIScre-cys ) and full age spectrum. Sensitivity, specificity, areas under receiver operating curve (AUC) and C-statistics were used to compare their predictive capacity. RESULTS:The best mix of sensitivity, specificity, AUC and C-statistic value in predicting mortality was observed with BIS equations. BIScre (AUC 0.65, 95% CI 0.61-0.69) outperformed both CKD-EPIcre (AUC 0.60, 95% CI 0.56-0.64; P = 0.005) and full age spectrum (AUC 0.63, 95% CI 0.59-0.67; P = 0.002) in terms of predictivity. Similarly, BIScre-cys (AUC 0.67, 95% CI 0.63-0.71) outperformed CKD-EPIcre-cys (AUC 0.63, 95% CI 0.59-0.67; P = 0.01). AUC obtained with equations also including cystatin C were not significantly different compared with their creatinine-based counterparts. The risk of long-term mortality began to increase at under 65.6 mL/min/1.73 m2 for CKD-EPIcre-cys , 60.5 for CKD-EPIcre , 60 for BIScre-cys , 56.3 for BIScre and 55.2 for full age spectrum. CONCLUSIONS:The BIS equation discriminates the risk of all-cause mortality better than other equations in older community-dwelling individuals. The eGFR threshold under which mortality starts to increase could change as a function of the equation used. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2018; 18: 607-614.

Project description:BackgroundEquations to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) are routinely used to assess kidney function. Current equations have limited precision and systematically underestimate measured GFR at higher values.ObjectiveTo develop a new estimating equation for GFR: the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation.DesignCross-sectional analysis with separate pooled data sets for equation development and validation and a representative sample of the U.S. population for prevalence estimates.SettingResearch studies and clinical populations ("studies") with measured GFR and NHANES (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey), 1999 to 2006.Participants8254 participants in 10 studies (equation development data set) and 3896 participants in 16 studies (validation data set). Prevalence estimates were based on 16,032 participants in NHANES.MeasurementsGFR, measured as the clearance of exogenous filtration markers (iothalamate in the development data set; iothalamate and other markers in the validation data set), and linear regression to estimate the logarithm of measured GFR from standardized creatinine levels, sex, race, and age.ResultsIn the validation data set, the CKD-EPI equation performed better than the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study equation, especially at higher GFR (P < 0.001 for all subsequent comparisons), with less bias (median difference between measured and estimated GFR, 2.5 vs. 5.5 mL/min per 1.73 m(2)), improved precision (interquartile range [IQR] of the differences, 16.6 vs. 18.3 mL/min per 1.73 m(2)), and greater accuracy (percentage of estimated GFR within 30% of measured GFR, 84.1% vs. 80.6%). In NHANES, the median estimated GFR was 94.5 mL/min per 1.73 m(2) (IQR, 79.7 to 108.1) vs. 85.0 (IQR, 72.9 to 98.5) mL/min per 1.73 m(2), and the prevalence of chronic kidney disease was 11.5% (95% CI, 10.6% to 12.4%) versus 13.1% (CI, 12.1% to 14.0%).LimitationThe sample contained a limited number of elderly people and racial and ethnic minorities with measured GFR.ConclusionThe CKD-EPI creatinine equation is more accurate than the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study equation and could replace it for routine clinical use.Primary funding sourceNational Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
