Project description:Prevalence and factors associated with obstructive and restrictive lung function in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are unknown.Cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses.Participants aged 40 to 79 years from NHANES (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) 2007 to 2012 who underwent spirometry testing.CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] >15-<60mL/min/1.73m(2) or urinary albumin-creatinine ratio ? 30mg/g).Restrictive lung function (defined as FEV1/FVC?0.70 and baseline FVC<80% predicted), obstructive lung function (defined as FEV1/FVC<0.70 based on postbronchodilator spirometric results), and mortality data (available for 2007-2008 and 2009-2010 survey periods).7,610 participants (CKD=1,338; non-CKD=6,272) were included. Prevalences of obstructive lung function adjusted to the mean age of 55 years and 50% men in the CKD and non-CKD groups were 15.6% and 13.3%, respectively (P=0.2). Similarly, adjusted prevalences of restrictive lung function in the CKD and non-CKD groups were 9.8% and 6.7%, respectively (P=0.01). Presence of albumin-creatinine ratio ? 30mg/g was associated with obstructive (OR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.07-1.88) and restrictive lung function (OR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.01-2.03) in the entire study cohort. eGFR<60mL/min/1.73m(2) was associated with higher odds of obstructive lung function. In a multivariable Cox model, age (HR, 1.07; 95% CI, 1.04-1.11) and presence of obstructive lung function (HR, 2.68; 95% CI, 1.80-3.97), but not CKD measures, were associated with death.Small proportion of participants with advanced kidney disease.In a representative sample of US adults, impaired lung function is common in those with and without CKD. Albuminuria was independently associated with both obstructive and restrictive lung function, and eGFR<60mL/min/1.73m(2) was associated with higher odds of obstructive lung function. Older age and obstructive lung function were associated with higher likelihood of death. Further studies examining the burden of lung disease in advanced CKD are needed.

Project description:Environmental exposure to phthalates may contribute to an increased risk of asthma in children and adults. We aimed to assess the direction and strength of the association between urinary phthalates metabolites and current asthma in children and adults that participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2007-2012. Data on ten urinary phthalate metabolites, self-reported questionnaires, spirometry measures, and covariates were obtained from 7765 participants (28.1% were children aged 6-17 years) taking part in the NHANES 2007-2012. Asthma was assessed using self-reported questionnaires for children and adults, and via spirometry measures for adults alone. We used crude and adjusted logistic regression models to estimate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) per one log10 unit change in the concentration of phthalate metabolites. We further modeled the effect modification by sex. Out of 10 metabolites, only mono-benzyl phthalate (MBzP) was positively associated with the prevalence of self-reported asthma in children, after adjusting for a range of potential confounders (odds ratio 1.54; 95% confidence interval 1.05-2.27). No significant relationship was observed for adults. The association of mono-ethyl phthalate (MEP) was modified by sex, with significantly increased odds of asthma among males [boys (2.00; 1.14-3.51); adult males (1.32; 1.04-1.69)]. While no other phthalates showed a positive relationship with current asthma in males, mono-(carboxynonyl) phthalate (MCNP) and mono-(3-carboxylpropyl) phthalate (MCPP) were inversely associated with spirometrically defined asthma in adult females. A sex-specific relationship in adults was evident when spirometry, but not self-reported measures were used to define asthma. We found no clear association between exposure to phthalates and current asthma, except for a significant relationship between MBzP metabolites and self-reported asthma in children. As a result, exposure to phthalates and asthma development and/or exacerbations remains controversial, suggesting a need for a well-designed longitudinal study.

Project description:Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) are widespread environmental contaminants that are known nephrotoxins. However, their nephrotoxic effects at low-environmental exposure levels are debated.We examined the association of blood Pb (B-Pb), blood Cd (B-Cd), urinary Pb (U-Pb) and urinary Cd (U-Cd) with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urinary albumin (ALB).We used multivariate linear regression to analyze the association between B-Pb, B-Cd, U-Pb, and U-Cd with eGFR and ALB in adult participants (?20 years of age) in NHANES 2007-2012. The dataset was limited to NHANES individuals with both blood and urinary metal measurements.We found a statistically significant inverse association between eGFR and B-Cd and statistically significant positive associations between eGFR and both U-Cd and U-Pb, as well as statistically significant associations between ALB and the 3rd and 4th quartiles of U-Cd.The inverse association between eGFR and B-Cd, in conjunction with positive associations between eGFR and ALB with U-Cd, suggest that U-Cd measurement at low levels of exposure may result from changes in renal excretion of Cd due to kidney function and protein excretion. However, renal effects such as hyperfiltration from Cd-mediated kidney damage or creatinine-specific Cd effects cannot be excluded with this cross-sectional design.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:To estimate the prevalence and determinants of the use of potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) in older U.S. adults using the 2012 Beers criteria. DESIGN:Retrospective cohort study in a random national sample of Medicare beneficiaries. SETTING:Fee-for-service Medicare beneficiaries from 2007 to 2012. PARTICIPANTS:U.S. population aged 65 and older with Parts A, B, and D enrollment in at least 1 month during a calendar year (N = 38,250 individuals; 1,308,116 observations). MEASUREMENTS:The 2012 Beers criteria were used to estimate the prevalence of the use of PIMs in each calendar month and over a 12-month period using data on diagnoses or conditions present in the previous 12 months. Generalized estimating equations were used to account for the dependence of multiple monthly observations of a single person when estimating 95% confidence intervals (CIs), and logistic regression was used to identify independent determinants of PIM use. RESULTS:The point prevalence of the use of PIMs decreased from 37.6% (95% CI = 37.0-38.1) in 2007 to 34.2% (95% CI = 33.6-34.7) in 2012, with a statistically significant 2% (95% CI = 1-3%) decline per year assuming a linear trend. The 1-year period prevalence declined from 64.9% in 2007 to 56.6% in 2012. The strongest predictor of PIM use was the number of drugs dispensed. Individuals aged 70 and older and those seen by a geriatrician were less likely to receive a PIM. CONCLUSION:From 2007 to 2012, the prevalence of PIM use in older U.S. adults decreased according to the 2012 Beers criteria, although it remains high, still affecting one-third each month and more than half over 12 months. The number of dispensed prescriptions could be used to target future interventions.

Project description:ObjectivesTo analyze the sources of per-beneficiary Medicare spending growth between 2007 and 2014, including the role of demographic characteristics, attributes of Medicare coverage, and chronic conditions.Data sourcesIndividual-level Medicare spending and enrollment data.Study designUsing an Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition model, we analyzed whether changes in price-standardized, per-beneficiary Medicare Part A and B spending reflected changes in the composition of the Medicare population or changes in relative spending levels per person.Data extraction methodsWe identified a 5 percent sample of fee-for-service Medicare beneficiaries age 65 and above from years 2007 to 2014.ResultsMean payment-adjusted Medicare per-beneficiary spending decreased by $180 between the 2007-2010 and 2011-2014 time periods. This decline was almost entirely attributable to lower spending levels for beneficiaries. Notably, declines in marginal spending levels for beneficiaries with chronic conditions were associated with a $175 reduction in per-beneficiary spending. The decline was partially offset by the increasing prevalence of certain chronic diseases. Still, we are unable to attribute a large share of the decline in spending levels to observable beneficiary characteristics or chronic conditions.ConclusionsDeclines in spending levels for Medicare beneficiaries with chronic conditions suggest that changing patterns of care use may be moderating spending growth.

Project description:Nitromethane is a known toxicant and suspected human carcinogen. Exposure to nitromethane in a representative sample of the civilian, noninstitutionalized population in the United States ?12 years old was assessed using 2007-2012 National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (NHANES) data. Nitromethane was detected in all 8000 human blood samples collected, of which 6730 were used for analyses reported here. Sample-weighted median blood nitromethane was higher among exclusive combusted tobacco users (exclusive smokers; 774 ng/L) than nonusers of tobacco products (625 ng/L). In stratified sample-weighted regression analysis, smoking 0.5 pack of cigarettes per day was associated with a statistically significant increase in blood nitromethane by 150 ng/L, and secondhand smoke exposure (serum cotinine >0.05 ng/mL and <10 ng/mL) was statistically significant with a 31.1 ng/L increase in blood nitromethane. Certain dietary sources were associated with small but statistically significant increases in blood nitromethane. At median consumption levels, blood nitromethane was associated with an increase of 7.55 ng/L (meat/poultry), 9.32 ng/L (grain products), and 14.5 ng/L (vegetables). This is the first assessment of the magnitude and relative source apportionment of nitromethane exposure in the U.S. population.

Project description:ObjectiveTo evaluate the prevalence and temporal trends of presarcopenia and related body composition measurements.DesignCross-sectional study.SettingNational Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2006.MethodsPresarcopenia was defined according to the guidelines from the European Working Group on Sarcopenia. Logistic or linear regression models were used to evaluate the linear trend of the prevalence of presarcopenia, obesity and related body composition measurements.ParticipantsA total of 29 947 participants aged 18-90 years from five waves of the NHANES were included in the analysis.Outcome measuresPresarcopenia was sex-specifically defined as having a skeletal mass index ≤7.26 kg/m2 in men and ≤5.5 kg/m2 in women. Body composition measurements, including total body fat percentage, total body fat mass, total lean body mass, appendicular skeletal muscle mass and bone mineral density, were obtained by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.ResultsThe overall prevalence of presarcopenia ranged from 16.4% in 1999-2000 to 14.8% in 2005-2006 (p for trend=0.78). Presarcopenia was stable in both males (p for trend=0.36) and females (p for trend=0.20). The presarcopenia prevalence was significantly elevated among the age group of 18-39 years old (from 11.3% to 14.1%, p for trend=0.04) and among non-Hispanic blacks (p for trend <0.001). Adults aged ≥80 years old had the highest prevalence.ConclusionsThe prevalence of presarcopenia increased among young individuals over time. Non-Hispanic blacks also demonstrated an increasing trend in the prevalence over time.

Project description:ObjectiveBlood pressure (BP) control rates among adult patients taking antihypertensive medications in the United States have not improved over the last decade. Many CKD adults require more than one class of antihypertensive agent to reach the BP target recommended by the guidelines. However, no study has quantified the proportion of adult CKD patients taking antihypertensive medication who are on monotherapy or combination therapy.MethodsNational Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data during 2001-2018 was used, including adults with CKD taking antihypertensive medication (age ≥ 20 years, n = 4,453). BP control rates were investigated under the BP targets recommended by the 2021 KDIGO, the 2012 KDIGO, and the 2017 ACC/AHA guidelines.ResultsThe percentages of uncontrolled BP among US adults with CKD taking antihypertensive medication were 81.4% in 2001-2006 and 78.2% in 2013-2018. The proportion of monotherapy of antihypertensive regimen were 38.6, 33.3, and 34.6% from 2001 to 2006, 2007-2012, and 2013-2018, with no obvious difference. Similarly, there was no significant change in percentages of dual-therapy, triple-therapy, and quadruple-therapy. Although proportion of CKD adults not treated with ACEi/ARB decreased from 43.5% in 2001-2006 to 32.7% in 2013-2018, treatment of ACEi/ARB among patients with ACR > 300 mg/g had no significant change.ConclusionThe BP control rates among US adult CKD patients taking antihypertensive medications have not improved from 2001 to 2018. Mono-therapy accounted for about one third of adult CKD patients taking antihypertensive medication and not changed. Increasing antihypertensive medication combination therapy may help improve BP control in CKD adults in the United States.

Project description:IntroductionHypertriglyceridemia is associated with increased atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) event risk, which persists even in statin-treated patients. The objective of this analysis was to estimate the prevalence of triglyceride (TG) levels ≥ 150 mg/dl in statin-treated adults with diabetes or ASCVD in the United States.MethodsLaboratory data, medical history, and prescription data from 40,617 subjects who participated in the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning 8 years (four 2-year surveys; 2007-2014) were analyzed. Patients included were ≥ 20 years old and had morning fasting (at least 8.5 h) TG values available. The proportion and weighted number of individuals in the US population with TG ≥ 150 mg/dl was calculated according to statin use, as well as in key subgroups of statin-treated patients including those with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels < 100 mg/dl, type 2 diabetes, ASCVD, and those with type 2 diabetes and ASCVD.ResultsA total of 9593 subjects, projected to represent 219.9 million Americans, met the study entry criteria and were included in the analysis. Of these, 2523 had TG levels ≥ 150 mg/dl, translating to a prevalence of 25.9% and representing 56.9 million Americans. Among statin-treated adults, the proportion with TG levels ≥ 150 mg/dl was 31.6% (12.3 million) and ranged from 27.6 to 39.5% for those who also had LDL-C levels < 100 mg/dl and type 2 diabetes or ASCVD.ConclusionsOver 12 million Americans are treated with a statin and have TG levels ≥ 150 mg/dl. Interventions such as icosapent ethyl that have been shown to reduce ASCVD event risk in this elevated TG population with type 2 diabetes or established ASCVD can provide substantial clinical benefit for these patients.

Project description:Dietary recommendations for adults with diabetes are to follow a healthy diet in appropriate portion sizes. We determined recent trends in energy and nutrient intakes among a nationally representative sample of US adults with and without type 2 diabetes.Participants were adults aged ?20 years from the cross-sectional National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys, 1988-2012 (N = 49 770). Diabetes was determined by self-report of a physician's diagnosis (n = 4885). Intake of energy and nutrients were determined from a 24-h recall by participants of all food consumed. Linear regression was used to test for trends in mean intake over time for all participants and by demographic characteristics.Among adults with diabetes, overall total energy intake increased between 1988-1994 and 2011-2012 (1689 kcal versus 1895 kcal; Ptrend < 0.001) with evidence of a plateau between 2003-2006 and 2011-2012. In 2007-2012, energy intake was greater for younger than older adults, for men than women, and for non-Hispanic whites versus non-Hispanic blacks. There was no change in the percentage of calories from carbohydrate, total fat or protein. Percentage of calories from saturated fat was similar across study periods but remained above recommendations (11.2% in 2011-2012). Fibre intake significantly decreased and remained below recommendations (Ptrend = 0.002). Sodium, cholesterol and calcium intakes increased. There was no change in energy intake among adults without diabetes and dietary trends were similar to those with diabetes.Future data are needed to confirm a plateau in energy intake among adults with diabetes, although the opportunity exists to increase fibre and reduce saturated fat.
