Diabetes, Kidney Disease, and Cardiovascular Outcomes in the Jackson Heart Study.

ABSTRACT: Blacks have high rates of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Diabetes and CKD, risk factors for cardiovascular mortality in the general population, are common among blacks. We sought to assess their contribution to cardiovascular disease and mortality in blacks.This observational cohort study was of 3211 participants in the Jackson Heart Study (enrolled 2000-2004). Rates of incident stroke, incident coronary heart disease, and cardiovascular mortality were quantified in participants with diabetes, CKD (eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m(2), urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio ?30 mg/g, or both), or both through 2012, with a median follow-up of 6.99 years.Four hundred fifty-six (14.2%) participants had only diabetes, 257 (8.0%) had only CKD, 201 (6.3%) had both, and 2297 (71.5%) had neither. Diabetes without CKD was associated with excess risks of incident stroke, incident coronary heart disease, and cardiovascular mortality after adjustment for demographic and clinical covariates, including prevalent cardiovascular disease (excess incidence rates, 2.6; 95% confidence interval, 0.5 to 4.7; 2.6; 95% confidence interval, 0.3 to 4.8; and 2.4; 95% confidence interval, 0.4 to 4.3 per 1000 person-years, respectively). CKD without diabetes was associated with comparable nonsignificant excess risks for incident stroke and coronary heart disease (2.5; 95% confidence interval, -0.1 to 5.2 and 2.4; 95% confidence interval, -0.8 to 5.5 per 1000 person-years, respectively) but a larger excess risk for cardiovascular mortality (7.3; 95% confidence interval, 3.0 to 11.5 per 1000 person-years). Diabetes and CKD together were associated with greater excess risks for incident stroke (13.8; 95% confidence interval, 5.3 to 22.3 per 1000 person-years), coronary heart disease (12.8; 95% confidence interval, 4.9 to 20.8 per 1000 person-years), and cardiovascular mortality (14.8; 95% confidence interval, 7.2 to 22.3 per 1000 person-years). The excess risks associated with the combination of diabetes and CKD were larger than those associated with established risk factors, including prevalent cardiovascular disease.The combination of diabetes and kidney disease is associated with substantial excess risks of cardiovascular events and mortality among blacks.

Project description:Background25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] is lower in black compared with white Americans but is not consistently associated with outcomes in this group, possibly due to genetic and other biological differences. We examined the association of plasma 25(OH)D and renal outcomes in black Americans with a focus on effect modifiers.MethodsWe studied associations between baseline 25(OH)D with (i) annual rate of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline and (ii) incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the Jackson Heart Study, a prospective cohort of black Americans. Plasma 25(OH)D levels were corrected for monthly variation in sunlight exposure using the residual method. We used adjusted generalized linear models to evaluate outcomes and assessed potential effect modification by diabetes mellitus, vitamin D binding protein (DBP) genotype, obesity, dietary sodium intake, and use of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors.ResultsAmong 5164 participants with 25(OH)D available, plasma 25(OH)D was 14.5 ± 6.5 ng/mL (mean ± SD), and eGFR was 94.1 ± 22.0 mL/min/1.73 m2. Over a median of 8 years, eGFR decline was 1.3 ± 2.0 mL/min/1.73 m2 per year in 3228 participants with complete data, and 220 out of 1803 eligible participants developed incident CKD. Overall, 25(OH)D was not associated with eGFR decline in fully adjusted models. However, higher 25(OH)D was associated with slower eGFR decline among those with diabetes: each 5 ng/mL higher 25(OH)D was associated with a 0.27 mL/min/1.73 m2/y slower eGFR decline (95% CI, 0.13 to 0.41; P < 0.001). Higher 25(OH)D was not associated with incident CKD overall, but it was associated with lower odds of incident CKD among participants with the GG or GT genotype at rs7041 in the gene encoding DBP [OR, 0.69 per 5 ng/mL higher 25(OH)D; 95% CI, 0.51 to 0.93; P-interaction = 0.005]. Other interactions were not significant.ConclusionThese findings support a potential benefit of higher 25(OH)D for kidney health in black Americans with diabetes or specific variants in DBP.

Project description:BackgroundGreater attainment of ideal cardiovascular health (ICH) and lower serum aldosterone are associated with lower diabetes risk. Higher levels of ICH are associated with lower aldosterone. The mediational role of aldosterone in the association of ICH with incident diabetes remains unexplored. Thus, we examined the mediational role of aldosterone in the association of 5 ICH components (smoking, diet, physical activity, body mass index [BMI], and cholesterol) with incident diabetes. Additionally, we investigated the mediational role of glucose and blood pressure (BP) in the association of aldosterone with incident diabetes in an African American (AA) cohort.MethodsWe conducted a prospective cohort analysis among AA adults, aged 21-94 years, in the Jackson Heart Study. Data on ICH, aldosterone, and cardiometabolic risk factors were collected at exam 1 (2000-2004). Diabetes (fasting glucose ≥ 126 mg/dL, physician diagnosis, use of diabetes drugs, or glycated hemoglobin ≥ 6.5%) was assessed at exams 1 through 3 (2009-2012). ICH metrics were defined by American Heart Association 2020 goals for smoking, dietary intake, physical activity, BMI, total cholesterol, BP and glucose. The number of ICH metrics attained at exam 1, excluding BP and fasting glucose, were summed (0-2, vs. 3+). R Package Mediation was used to examine: 1) The mediational role of aldosterone in the association of ICH with incident diabetes; and 2) the mediational role of BP and glucose in the association of aldosterone with incident diabetes.ResultsAmong 2,791 participants (mean age: 53±12, 65% female) over a median of 7.5 years, there were 497 incident diabetes cases. Risk of incident diabetes was 37% (HR: 0.63, 95%CI: 0.47, 0.84) lower in 3+ ICH category compared to 0-2 ICH category. Aldosterone mediated 6.98% (95% CI: 1.8%, 18.0%) of the direct effect of ICH on incident diabetes. A 1-unit increase in log-aldosterone was associated with a 44% higher risk of diabetes (HR 1.44, 95%CI 1.25-1.64). BP and glucose mediated 16.3% (95% CI: 7.0%, 31.0%) and 19.7% (95% CI: 6.5%, 34.0%) of the association of aldosterone with incident diabetes, respectively.ConclusionAldosterone is a mediator of the association of ICH with incident diabetes, whereas BP and glucose are mediators of the association of aldosterone with incident diabetes, emphasizing the importance of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and ICH in lowering risk of diabetes in AA populations.
