Abstract
Introduction
There are discrepant findings regarding the effect of dyslipidemia on disease progression in adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Methods
In a prospective cohort study of children with stage 3 to 5 (predialysis) CKD, triglycerides (TGs), total cholesterol (CHOL), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were measured semiannually. We investigated whether CKD progression is associated with serum lipid levels at baseline and with lipid trajectories during follow-up. CKD progression was defined as the time to a composite event of 50% reduction in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), eGFR < 10 ml/min per 1.73 m2, or start of kidney replacement therapy. By semiparametric group-based trajectory modeling (GBTM), 2 trajectories were defined for each lipid, termed “high” and “low.”
Results
A total of 681 patients aged 12.2 ± 3.3 years with a mean eGFR of 26.9 ± 11.6 ml/min per 1.73 m2 were included. Kidney diagnosis was classified as congenital anomalies of the kidneys and urinary tracts (CAKUT) in 69%, glomerulopathy in 8.4%, and other disorders in 22.6% of patients. During a median of 5.1 years of follow-up, 59% of patients reached the composite end point. Kidney survival was significantly different for HDL-C (P = 0.0128), but not for other lipid trajectories in the Kaplan-Meier analysis. There was no significant association of any of the lipid trajectories with CKD progression in Cox proportional hazard models. Variables consistently associated with CKD progression in models for each lipid at baseline and for lipid trajectories included age, a diagnosis other than CAKUT, eGFR at baseline, albuminuria, the serum albumin level, and diastolic blood pressure (BP).
Conclusions
These data do not support an important role for lipids in the progression of CKD in children.
期刊介绍:
Kidney International Reports, an official journal of the International Society of Nephrology, is a peer-reviewed, open access journal devoted to the publication of leading research and developments related to kidney disease. With the primary aim of contributing to improved care of patients with kidney disease, the journal will publish original clinical and select translational articles and educational content related to the pathogenesis, evaluation and management of acute and chronic kidney disease, end stage renal disease (including transplantation), acid-base, fluid and electrolyte disturbances and hypertension. Of particular interest are submissions related to clinical trials, epidemiology, systematic reviews (including meta-analyses) and outcomes research. The journal will also provide a platform for wider dissemination of national and regional guidelines as well as consensus meeting reports.
