Cardiovascular Outcome Trial

SAVOR-TIMI 53 was the first FDA-mandated cardiovascular outcome trial to be presented and published. It compared saxagliptin and placebo in 16,492 patients with type 2 diabetes. SAVOR-TIMI 53 demonstrated non-inferiority for major cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke) but not superiority. An unexpected statistically significant increase in adjudicated hospitalisation for heart failure was seen in the saxagliptin group. Post hoc analysis demonstrated that subjects at greatest risk for hospitalisation for heart failure had previous heart failure, an estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min, or elevated baseline levels of N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide. As other dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are available which have not been associated with an increased risk of hospitalisation for heart failure, saxagliptin should be avoided in patients with heart failure or a reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate.

Metabolic Equivalent Of Task

In previous studies, it has been documented that a short reproductive period is associated with a higher risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease. This study aims to investigate the association of the reproductive period length with decreased renal function. This study obtained data from “the Shanghai Suburban Adult Cohort and Biobank”. An estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) below 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 indicated decreased renal function during follow-up. Participants were grouped into quintiles by reproductive period. Logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the association between the reproductive period and decreased renal function. A total of 5503 menopausal women with baseline eGFR > 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 were included. Age, eGFR, and metabolic equivalent of task (MET) at baseline were 61.0 (range, 36.0–74.0) years, 92.2 (range, 60.1–194.5) mL/min/1.73 m2, and 1386 (range, 160–6678), respectively. A reproductive period of 37–45 years was associated with a lower risk of decreased eGFR (OR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.35–1.00, p = 0.049) after adjusting for confounding variables. METs decreased the risk of decreased eGFR in women with a reproductive period of 37–45 years (OR: 0.43, 95% CI: 0.23–0.81, p = 0.010). Women with a longer reproductive period have a lower risk of decreased renal function. METs had an opposite influence on renal function in women with longer (decreased risk) or shorter (increased risk) reproductive periods.

Background: The effects of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and cystatin C on clinical outcomes on intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remain unclear. We investigated the associations of eGFR and cystatin C with 3-month functional outcome and all-cause mortality in acute ICH patients. Methods: A total of 365 patients with acute ICH were enrolled. Serum creatinine and cystatin C levels were measured within 24 h of admission. Outcomes at 3-month were evaluated by interviews with patients or their family members. Poor functional outcome was defined as a modified Rankin Scale score ≥3. Results: During the 3-month follow-up, 154 patients experienced poor functional outcome, and 48 patients died from all causes. Low eGFR level was associated with poor outcome (adjusted OR 8.95; 95% CI 2.13-37.66; p-trend = 0.045) and all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio (HR) 5.10; 95% CI 2.00-13.03; p-trend = 0.001). Additionally, a high cystatin C level was also found to be associated with all-cause mortality (adjusted HR 4.01; 95% CI 1.09-14.72; p-trend = 0.015). However, no significant association between cystatin C and poor functional outcome was observed (p-trend = 0.615). Conclusions: Low eGFR at baseline predicts poor functional outcome and all-cause mortality at 3-month in acute ICH patients. Also, high cystatin C was associated with increased risk of mortality but not with poor functional outcome.

Background: High lipoprotein(a) is associated with poor prognosis in patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease. Renal function based on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a potential risk factor for the change of lipoprotein(a). However, the regulatory effect of eGFR stratification on lipoprotein(a)-associated mortality has not been adequately addressed.Methods: 51,500 patients who underwent coronary angiography (CAG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were included from the Cardiorenal ImprovemeNt (CIN) study (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04407936). These patients were grouped according to lipoprotein(a) quartiles (Q1–Q4) stratified by eGFR categories (&lt;60 and ≥60 mL/min/1.73m2). Cox regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) for mortality across combined eGFR and lipoprotein(a) categories.Results: The mean age of the study population was 62.3 ± 10.6 years, 31.3% were female (n = 16,112). During a median follow-up of 5.0 years (interquartile range: 3.0–7.6 years), 13.0% (n = 6,695) of patients died. Compared with lipoprotein(a) Q1, lipoprotein(a) Q2–Q4 was associated with 10% increased adjusted risk of death in all patients (HR: 1.10 [95% CI: 1.03–1.17]), and was strongly associated with about 23% increased adjusted risk of death in patients with eGFR &lt;60 mL/min/1.73m2 (HR: 1.23 [95% CI: 1.08–1.39]), while such association was not significant in patients with eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73m2 (HR: 1.05 [95% CI: 0.97–1.13]). P for interaction between lipoprotein(a) (Q1 vs. Q2–Q4) and eGFR (≥60 vs. eGFR &lt;60 mL/min/1.73m2) on all-cause mortality was 0.019.Conclusions: Elevated lipoprotein(a) was associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality and such an association was modified by the baseline eGFR in CAG patients. More attention should be paid to the patients with reduced eGFR and elevated lipoprotein(a), and the appropriate lipoprotein(a) intervention is required.

Background/Aims: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its metabolic components, the common risk factors, may be involved in the development and progression of decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The aim of this study was to examine the association of MetS and its metabolic components with eGFR status and severity among Chinese adults. Methods: The population-based, cross-sectional study recruited a total of 33,300 Chinese adults (aged ≥18 years) from 4 study community sites in Songjiang District, Shanghai, between June 2016 and December 2017. Decreased eGFR was defined as a value of eGFR below 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Weighted multiple logistic regression models were used to examine the association of MetS and its components with eGFR status and severity. Results: After adjusting for potential confounders, subjects with MetS had an increased risk of decreased eGFR with an adjusted OR of 1.76 (95% CI 1.53–2.01), and subjects with increasing numbers of MetS components had a gradually increased risk for decreased eGFR (p trend <0.001). The multivariable-adjusted ORs (95% CI) of decreased eGFR were 1.66 (1.44–1.93) for abdominal obesity, 1.37 (1.18–1.60) for elevated triglycerides, 1.13 (0.96–1.33) for reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, 0.84 (0.72–0.98) for elevated fasting glucose, and 1.92 (1.57–2.35) for elevated blood pressure (BP). Furthermore, these associations remained in most of the subgroups analyses. Significant associations between elevated BP and the risks of mildly, moderately, and severely decreased eGFR were also found. Conclusions: MetS was independently associated with an increased risk of decreased eGFR, and individual components of MetS each play a different role in decreased eGFR. Elevated BP may be an important risk factor for the progression of renal dysfunction or even chronic kidney disease.

Patients With Heart Failure

Background: Renal dysfunction is associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF), but its impact on patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains unclear.Methods: 3,392 subjects of the TOPCAT (Treatment of Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure with an Aldosterone Antagonist) trial were assigned to two groups by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 or 30–59 ml/min/1.73 m2. The outcomes, including all-cause death, cardiovascular death and HF hospitalization, were examined by multivariable cox models.Results: Over a median follow-up of 3.4 ± 1.7 years, a total of 524 all-cause deaths, 334 cardiovascular deaths and 440 HF hospitalizations occurred. Compared with patients with eGFR ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73 m2, those with eGFR 30–59 ml/min/1.73 m2 were associated with an increased risk of the all-cause death [adjusted hazard ratio (HR), 1.47; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.24–1.76; P &lt; 0.001], cardiovascular death (adjusted HR, 1.53; 95% CI: 1.23–1.91; p &lt; 0.001), and HF hospitalization (adjusted HR: 1.21; 95% CI: 1.00–1.47; p = 0.049) after multivariable adjustment for potential confounders.Conclusions: eGFR 30–59 ml/min/1.73 m2 was related to an increased risk of all-cause death, cardiovascular death and HF hospitalization in HFpEF patients.
