Abstract Background and Aims Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are at high risk for recurrent cardiovascular (CV) events, particularly in the presence of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Apabetalone (APB) is a novel inhibitor of bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) proteins. Its cardiovascular efficacy and safety were evaluated in a phase 3 trial, BETonMACE. Method BETonMACE was a randomized, double-blind, comparison of effects of ABP or placebo (PBO) on major adverse CV events (MACE) defined as CV-death, non-fatal myocardial infarct or stroke, in 2425 pts with T2D and recent ACS. Here we report MACE plus CHF hospitalization in subjects with or without CKD Stage 3. Results Baseline characteristics: median age 62 years, 25.6% female, 87.6% white, 90% high intensity statin use, mean LDL-C 70.3 and HDL-C 33.3 mg/dl, median HbA1c 7.3%, and 11% with CKD Stage 3. Overall in the trial, MACE plus CHF hospitalization occurred in 139 (11.5%) patients with ABP and 173 (14.3%) with PBO (HR 0.78, 95% CI 0.63-0.98). In the subgroup with CKD, MACE plus CHF hospitalization occurred in 16 (12.9%) on APB and 41 (25%) on PBO (HR 0.48, 95% CI 0.26-0.89). In the subgroup without CKD, MACE plus CHF hospitalization occurred in 123 (11.3%) and 132 (12.7%) with APB or PBO, respectively (HR 0.89, 95% CI 0.70-1. Conclusion Patients with T2D, ACS, and Stage 3 CKD have a very high risk of subsequent MACE plus CHF hospitalization. The BET protein inhibitor ABP may reduce this risk.

Abstract Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD), one of the most common complications of type 2 diabetes (T2D), is associated with poor health outcomes and high healthcare expenditures. As the CKD population increases, a better understanding of the prevalence and progression of CKD is critical. However, few contemporary studies have explored the progression of CKD relative to its onset in T2D patients using established markers derived from real-world care settings. Methods This retrospective, population-based cohort study assessed CKD progression among adults with T2D and with newly recognized CKD identified from US administrative claims data between 1 January 2008 and 30 September 2018. Included were patients with T2D and laboratory evidence of CKD as indicated by the established estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urine albumin:creatinine ratio (UACR) criteria. Disease progression was described as transitions across the eGFR- and UACR-based stages. Results A total of 65 731 and 23 035 patients with T2D contributed to the analysis of eGFR- and UACR-based CKD stage progression, respectively. CKD worsening was observed in approximately 10–17% of patients over a median follow-up of 2 years. Approximately one-third of patients experienced an increase in eGFR values or a decrease in UACR values during follow-up. Conclusions A relatively high proportion of patients were observed with disease progression over a short period of time, highlighting the need for better identification of patients at risk of rapidly progressive CKD. Future studies are needed to determine the clinical characteristics of these patients to inform earlier diagnostic and therapeutic interventions aimed at slowing disease progression.

Aim: to assess relation ofhigh functional activity ofplatelets to prognosis ofunfavorable cardiovascular events in patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS).Materials. The study was based on the data of a single center ACS registry conducted in the Central Clinical Hospital of the Presidential Affairs Department of Russian Federation. Of 529 included patients in 425 without contraindications to double antiplatelet therapy we carried out analysis of dependence of 30 days level of unfavorable events on parameters of functional activity of platelets.Results. High on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) was found to be associated with 3.5 increase of mortality in the group of patients with high cardiovascular risk. Logistic model of prognosis of unfavorable events based on multifactorial analysis of data from patients with measured platelet aggregation included chronic kidney disease, type of myocardial infarction, and degree ofplatelet aggregation >45%. C -statistic was equal to 0.77. We also present in this paper discussion of problems related to studying approaches to individualization of anti-aggregation therapy in real clinical practice and problems of organization ofsimilar studies.Conclusion. The study showed that patients with ACS increased platelet aggregation, as well as chronic kidney disease and type 2 MI are associated with a 30 day prognosis of adverse events.

Background: Chronic kidney disease is a frequent comorbidity among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We aimed to evaluate treatment characteristics in ACS patients according to their renal function and to assess the effect of differences in therapy on clinical outcomes. Methods: Included were patients with ACS enrolled in the biennial Acute Coronary Syndrome Israeli Surveys (ACSIS) during 2000-2013. Excluded were patients with cardiogenic shock at presentation. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the simplified Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula. The distribution of the eGFRs was divided into 4 categories (<45, 45-59.9, 60-74.9, and ≥75 mL/min/1.73 m2). The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality at 1 year. Results: A total of 13,194 patients with ACS were included. Patients with a reduced eGFR were less likely to be admitted to a coronary care unit and had lower rates of coronary angiograms and subsequent percutaneous coronary interventions. Furthermore, as the eGFR was lower, the patients were less frequently treated with aspirin, clopidogrel, β-blockers, and ACE inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers. We demonstrated an inverse association between renal function and 1-year mortality, with the highest mortality rates observed in the group with the lowest eGFR (HR = 3.8, 95% CI 2.9-4.9, p < 0.0001). Differences in mortality remained significant following a multivariate analysis for all the baseline characteristics as well as for invasive and medical treatment (HR = 2.7, 95% CI 1.9-3.7, p < 0.0001). Conclusions: ACS patients with chronic kidney disease represent a high-risk group with an increased mortality risk. Despite this high risk, these patients are less frequently selected for an invasive treatment strategy and are less commonly treated with guideline-based medications. However, reduced renal function was associated with higher mortality regardless of the variations in therapy.

Abstract Background: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes enhances the cardiovascular risk profiles and disease, and is a strong predictor of progression to end-stage kidney disease. Early diagnosis is encouraged for referral to specialist kidney care to initiate active management that would optimize outcomes including forestalling progression to end-stage kidney disease. This study was conducted in a regional referral public health facility in Central Kenya with a high prevalence of type 2 diabetes. It was aimed at finding out the burden of undiagnosed chronic kidney disease in their clinic of ambulatory patients with type 2 diabetes who dwell mainly in the rural area. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the out-patient of Nyeri County hospital. A total of 385 patients were enrolled over five months. Informed consent was obtained and clinical evaluation was done, a spot sample of urine obtained for albuminuria and venous blood drawn for HbA1c, Lipids and serum creatinine. Estimated GFR (eGFR) was calculated using the Cockroft-Gault equation. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was classified on KDIGO scale. Albuminuria was reported as either positive or negative. Main outcomes measure: Estimated Glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria as markers of chronic kidney disease. Results: A total of 385 participants were included in the study, 252 (65.5%) were females. There were 39.0 % (95%CI 34.3-44.2) patients in CKD/KDIGO stages 3, 4 and 5 and 32.7% (95%CI, 27.8-37.4) had Albuminuria. The risk factors that were significantly associated with chronic kidney disease/KDIGO stages 3, 4 and 5 were: age >50years, long duration with diabetes >5years and hypertension. Employment and paradoxically, obesity reduced the odds of having CKD, probably as markers of better socio-economic status. Conclusion: Unrecognized CKD of KDIGO stages 3,4 and 5 occurred in over thirty percent of the study patients. The risk factors of hypertension, age above 50, long duration of diabetes should help identify those at high risk of developing CKD, for screening and linkage to care. They are at high risk of progression to end-stage kidney disease and cardiovascular events. The imperative of screening for chronic kidney disease is availing care in publicly-funded hospitals.

Abstract Objectives Diet beverages are calorie free beverages sweetened with non-nutritive sweeteners. People with diabetes are the highest per-capita consumers of diet beverages, tending to consume them as a replacement for sugar sweetened beverages. This behavior is endorsed by dietetic and scientific organizations and diet beverages are marketed synonymously with better health. The underlying concern is the lack of data to support or refute this concept. To begin addressing this gap we examined the association between diet beverage intake and incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) in a population at high risk for CKD. Methods We pooled data from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study (years 1987–2014), Cardiovascular Health Study (1989–2014), Jackson Heart Study (2000–2012), and Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (2000–2013) to conduct a prospective study of the association of diet beverage intake with the incidence of CKD among participants with clinically ascertained type 2 diabetes (T2D) without prevalent CKD and with valid dietary data (n = 3250). CKD was defined using serum creatinine to define estimated glomerular filtration (eGFR) via the CKD-EPI creatinine equation. Incident CKD was defined as (eGFR &lt;60 ml/min/1.73 m2). We carried out a 2-step meta-analysis using individual level, cohort-specific regression analyses with identical adjustment for demographic, lifestyle, overall diet quality (Alternative Healthy Eating Index), energy intake, and clinical risk factors (baseline eGFR, total cholesterol, blood pressure, fasting glucose) to generate effect estimates that were pooled together using fixed and random effects meta-analysis. Results 1018 participants developed CKD during follow-up. There was a positive association between diet beverage intake and risk of CKD. Compared to individuals reporting no intake of diet beverages, those consuming &gt;0 and &lt;1 diet beverage per day had a pooled relative risk and 95% confidence interval (RR, 95% CI) of 1.03 (0.87–1.22) and those consuming ≥1 beverage per day had a pooled RR (95% CI) of 1.20 (1.02–1.41). Conclusions Diet beverage intake was associated with an increased risk of CKD in a diverse population with T2D. These results suggest the need to further examine the role of diet beverages in this high risk population. Funding Sources AHA.
