Background: Currently the global data on the glomerular filtration rate of healthy adults are insufficient, with relatively little data for other races and countries. Especially in China, there are no such figures. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we included healthy Han adults in southern China. Participants completed a lifestyle and medical history questionnaire and had their blood pressure measured, and blood and urine samples collected. Serum creatinine was measured and used to estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) and Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formulae. The normal range of eGFR is described, and the influence of gender and age on eGFR is analyzed by the statistical method. Results: We provided the largest sample size of eGFR research in China at present. The mean age of the 20,930 healthy individuals was 40.9 ± 12.3 years, 58.8% were women. The eGFRMDRD for women and men were 111.3 ± 17.4 mL/min per 1.73 m2 and 103.3 ± 15.9 mL/min per 1.73 m2, respectively. The eGFRCKD-EPI for women and men were 110.3 ± 12.1 mL/min per 1.73 m2 and 103.8 ± 13.3 mL/min per 1.73 m2, respectively. The eGFRMDRD of women and men in all age groups decreased continuously by 7.3 ml/min/1.73 m2/decade and 4.4 ml/min/1.73 m2/decade, respectively. The eGFRCKD-EPI of women and men in all age groups decreased continuously by 8.4 ml/min/1.73 m2/decade and 6.9 ml/min/1.73 m2/decade. Conclusions: The eGFR of women is higher than men and with the increasing age, the eGFR of women declines faster than men.

Background. The situation of renal impairment among HIV-infected patients treated with TDF-based antiretroviral (ARV) regimen greater than 3 years is little known when TDF use has been promptly increasing in Vietnam. Methods. We analyse demographic and clinical data from a cross-sectional survey of 400 HIV-infected patients aged ≥18 years, who were treatment-naive or switched TDF regimen within over 3 years between November 2018 and March 2019. Serological tests for serum creatinine, ALT, and AST were performed. Renal impairment was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Multivariate regression analyses were used to explore the risk factors associated with renal impairment. Results. At the baseline, 7.8% of respondents had estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 30–59 mL/min/1.73 m2 and 0.8% had eGFR of 15–29 mL/min/1.73 m2, out of 34 (8.5%) of participants who had renal impairment. Multivariate analysis showed that participants who had preexposure to isoniazid (adjusted PR [aPR] = 0.35 Cl: 0.14–0.91) compared with nonexposure to isoniazid who had a BMI from 18.5 up to 25 kg/m2 (aPR = 0.31 Cl: 0.15–0.62) compared with BMI below 18.5 kg/m2 were less likely to suffer from renal impairment. Patients aged greater than 60 years (aPR = 26.75, 95% Cl: 3.38–211.62) compared with those aged 20–29 years were more likely to have increased risk of renal impairment. Conclusion. Our findings underscore the need for longitudinal studies to assess the influence of TDF on maintaining the low prevalence of renal impairment among HIV-infected patients in Vietnam.

Habitual coffee consumption is associated with the prevention of type 2 diabetes, which often accompanies diabetic nephropathy. However, the relationship between coffee consumption and kidney function is unclear. Therefore, we investigated the associations between habitual coffee consumption and kidney function and damage assessed by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and proteinuria using dipstick urinalysis, respectively, in a cross-sectional study of 342 apparently healthy adults. Habitual coffee consumption was defined as drinking one or more cups of coffee per d. eGFR in coffee consumers (n 182; 80·1 (sd 15·0) ml/min per 1·73 m2) was significantly higher than that in non-coffee consumers (n 160; 76·9 (sd 12·6) ml/min per 1·73 m2) (P < 0·05). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that, compared with non-coffee consumption, coffee consumption was significantly associated with normal or increased eGFR (NIGFR) ( ≥ 90 ml/min per 1·73 m2), but not proteinuria, which was not attenuated, even after adjustment for age, sex, smoking, tea consumption and other cardiovascular risks (OR 2·91; 95 % CI 1·51, 5·61; P = 0·001). When we took into account eGFR measured 1 year before in a subgroup of the subjects (n 262), coffee consumption (n 142) had a significant relationship with eGFR, which was consistently higher with a difference of 4·0 ml/min per 1·73 m2 compared with non-coffee consumption (P = 0·01; two-way repeated ANOVA). Similar associations were observed in both sexes when data were reanalysed according to sex. In conclusion, our findings suggest that habitual coffee consumption is associated with NIGFR independently of clinical confounders. Further studies are needed to confirm this association and to explore whether the effect of coffee consumption on eGFR is beneficial for the kidney.

Abstract Objective: To describe the frequency of albuminuria in overweight and obese children and adolescents and to relate it to the severity of obesity, pubertal staging, associated morbidities and the glomerular filtration rate. Method: Cross-sectional study including 64 overweight and obese children and adolescents between 5 and 19 years of age. Data collected: weight, height, waist circumference and systemic arterial pressure. Laboratory tests: lipid profile; glycemia and insulin, used to calculate the Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA-IR); C-reactive protein; glutamic-pyruvic transaminase and albuminuria in an isolated urine sample (cutoff <30 mg/g). Creatinine was used to calculate the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, mL/min/1.73 m2). Results: The mean age was 11.6 ± 3.4 years, 32 (50%) and 29 (45.3%) were male and prepubertal. Forty-six (71.9%) had severe obesity. The frequency and median (min/max) of the observed values for albuminuria (> 30 mg/g) were 14 (21.9%) and 9.4 mg/g (0.70, -300.7 mg/g). The mean eGFR was 122.9 ± 24.7 mL/min/1.73 m2. There was no significant correlation between body mass index, pubertal staging, insulin and HOMA-IR with albuminuria values and neither with eGFR. Children with albuminuria tended to have higher values of diastolic blood pressure (75.0 ± 12.2 vs. 68.1 ± 12.4, p = 0.071). Conclusion: Albuminuria, although frequent in children and adolescents with obesity, was not associated with other morbidities and the glomerular filtration rate in these patients.

Background: Kidney disease is more common in people of African descent in developed countries. Studies reporting estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) in African populations and people living with HIV have been carried more frequently on adults than children. The study aimed to assess eGFR by use of the SCHWARTZ formula in HIV infected children seen at tertiary hospital.Methods: A descriptive, prospective and cross sectional study of 221 children with HIV infection. Schwartz formula was used to determine eGFR. The main outcome measures were eGFR. The study population comprised HIV infected children attending Paediatric out-patients’ clinic and those admitted into the Paediatric wards, aged between 6 months and 15 years. Data was analysed using SPSS version 20 and results presented in tables and figures. Results: The age range of the study subjects was 12 months to 15 years with the mean age and SD of 8.21±3.61 years. There were 129 (58.4%) male and 92 (41.6%) female children with male to female ratio 1: 0.7.  The mean age for males was 7.87±3.49 years while that for females was 8.70±3.71 years. The eGFR for the study as determined by Schwartz formula had a range of 49.21 to 463.67 ml/ min/ 1.73m2 with the mean of 159.56±59.04 ml/min. The mean eGFR for the males and females were 166.39±63.54ml/ min and 149.99±45.01 ml/ min respectively. Conclusion: The study, in comparison with other studies, observed a lower prevalence of CKD in HIV infected children. Detection of CKD in HIV infection children may be more optimal if combined methods are employed.
