Abstract
Background: This study aims to investigate GFR decline in elderly subjects with varying physical conditions and analyze key risk factors impacting renal function changes. Methods: We obtained data from patients between 2017 and 2019, and matched healthy elderly subjects based on gender and age. Data collected for all subjects included annual measurements of fast blood glucose (GLU), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), blood albumin (ALB), blood uric acid (UA), urine protein (UP), and systolic blood pressure (SBP). Additionally, information on coexisting diseases was gathered. The Full Age Spectrum (FAS) equation was used to calculate eGFR. Results: A total of 162 patients with complete 3-year renal dynamic imaging were included, including 84 patients in the kidney disease group (K group) and 78 patients in the non-kidney disease group (NK group). Ninety individuals were selected as the healthy group (H group). The annual decline rate in the K group was the fastest, which exceeded 5mL/min/1.73m2 (P < 0.05). Group (K group: β=− 40.31, P< 0.001; NK group: β=− 26.96, P< 0.001), ALB (β=− 0.38, P=0.038) and HbA1c (β=1.36, P=0.029) had a significant negative impact on the eGFR changes. For participants who had negative proteinuria: K group had the most significant annual eGFR decline. Conclusion: The presence of kidney disease, along with proteinuria nor not, can lead to a marked acceleration in kidney function decline in elderly. We categorize elderly individuals with an annual eGFR decline of more than 5 mL/min/1.73m2 as the “kidney accelerated aging” population.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Interventions in Aging, is an online, peer reviewed, open access journal focusing on concise rapid reporting of original research and reviews in aging. Special attention will be given to papers reporting on actual or potential clinical applications leading to improved prevention or treatment of disease or a greater understanding of pathological processes that result from maladaptive changes in the body associated with aging. This journal is directed at a wide array of scientists, engineers, pharmacists, pharmacologists and clinical specialists wishing to maintain an up to date knowledge of this exciting and emerging field.
