Abstract
Objective
The cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic (CKM) syndrome lacks clear strategies for risk reduction.
Methods
This study utilized data from NHANES focusing on adults with CKM. Participants were categorized into early and advanced CKM. A multivariable logistic regression model evaluated the relationship between oxidative balance score (OBS) levels—total, dietary, and lifestyle—and advanced CKM. The mediating effects of cardiovascular indexes, atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), and cardiac metabolic index (CMI) were also analyzed. The SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) in machine learning interpret the importance of indexes' components.
Results
Higher OBS levels were significantly associated with a lower risk of advanced CKM. Specifically, a total OBS ≥ 28 correlated with a 36% reduced risk compared to scores ≤ 16. AIP and CMI were linked to increased advanced CKM risk at levels > 0.56 and > 0.57, respectively. Mediation analysis showed AIP and CMI potentially mediated 0.68% and 4.08% of the OBS-advanced CKM risk association. SHAP highlighted the importance of carotene and niacin.
Conclusions
This study is the first to identify an inverse association between higher OBS and advanced CKM risk, with cardiovascular indexes emerging as potential mediators, which lay the groundwork for future longitudinal and interventional studies to elucidate potential causal pathways.
