Earlier referral to clinical kidney services for people with high-risk of kidney failure can ensure appropriate care, education and support are in place pre-emptively. There are limited data on investigating the performance of KFRE in estimating risk of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The primary ESKD endpoint event was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <10 mL/min/1.73 m2 and secondary endpoint eGFR <15 mL/min/1.73 m2. Research design and methods We studied 7296 people (30% women, 41% African-Caribbean, 45% Caucasian) with T2DM and CKD (eGFR median (range) 48 (15–59) mL/min/1.73 m2) were included at two hospitals in London (median follow-up 10.2 years). Time to ESKD event was the endpoint and Concordance index (C-index) was used to assess KFRE’s discrimination of those experiencing ESKD from those who did not. Mean (integrated calibration index (ICI)) and 90th percentile (E90) of the difference between observed and predicted risks were used as calibration metrics. Results Of the cohort 746 (10.2%) reached ESKD primary event (135 (1.9%) and 339 (4.5%) over 2 and 5 years, respectively). Similarly, 1130 (15.5%) reached the secondary endpoint (270 (3.7%) and 547 (7.5%) over 2 and 5 years, respectively). The C-index for the primary endpoint was 0.842 (95% CI 0.836 to 0.848) and 0.816 (95% CI 0.812 to 0.820) for 2 and 5 years, respectively. KFRE ‘under-predicted’ ESKD risk overall and by ethnic group. Likewise, the C-index for secondary endpoint was 0.843 (0.839–0.847) and 0.801 (0.798–0.804) for 2 and 5 years, respectively. KFRE performance analysis performed more optimally with the primary endpoint with 50% enhancement of the calibration metrics than with the secondary endpoint. KFRE recalibration improved ICI by 50% and E90 by more than 78%. Conclusions Although derived for predicting KF, KFRE also demonstrated good discrimination for ESKD outcome. Further studies are needed to identify variables/biomarkers that may improve KFRE’s performance/calibration and to aid the development of other predictive models to enable early identification of people at risk of advanced stages of CKD prior to onset of KF.

However, limited data are available to quantify their risk of kidney function decline in South Asia. This study evaluates the rate and predictors of kidney function decline among people with type 2 diabetes in South Asia.</p><p><strong>Research design and methods: </strong>We analyzed data from the Centre for Cardiometabolic Risk Reduction in South Asia (CARRS) Trial to quantify the rate of decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in people with type 2 diabetes (n=1146) over 2.5 years of follow-up. The CARRS Trial evaluated a multicomponent intervention of decision-supported electronic health records and non-physician care coordinator to improve diabetes management at 10 diabetes clinics in India and Pakistan. We used linear mixed models to estimate eGFR slope among all participants and tested the association of eGFR slope with demographic, disease-related, and self-care parameters, accounting for randomization and site.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The mean age of participants was 54.2 years, with a median duration of diabetes of 7.0 years (IQR: 3.0 - 12.0) and median CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) eGFR of 83.6 (IQR: 67.7 to 97.9) mL/min/1.73 m². The overall mean eGFR slope was -1.33/mL/min/1.73 m²/year. There were no differences in the eGFR slope by treatment assignment to intervention versus usual care. In the adjusted regression model, pre-existing diabetic retinopathy (slope difference: -2.11; 95% CI: -3.45 to -0.77), previous cardiovascular disease (-1.93; 95% CI: -3.45 to -0.40), and statins use (-0.87; 95% CI: -1.65 to -0.10) were associated with faster eGFR decline.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>People with diabetes receiving care at urban diabetes clinics in South Asia experienced annual eGFR decline at two times higher rate than that reported from other contemporary international diabetes cohorts. Risk factors for faster decline were similar to those previously established, and thus care delivery models must put an additional emphasis on kidney protective therapies among subgroups with microvascular and macrovascular diabetes complications.</p><p><strong>Trial registration number: </strong>NCT01212328.</p>","PeriodicalId":9151,"journal":{"name":"BMJ Open Diabetes Research & Care","volume":"12 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11409274/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141995249","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
