Objective: Despite the achievement of blood glucose, blood pressure targets, the risk for kidney injury remains high among older adults. This observational retrospective study investigated whether high TG or high WC contribute to this high residual risk for kidney injury. Methods: A total of 843 elderly from Dongli Community, Tianjin, China, we selected 666 individuals with a baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 60 mL/min/1.73 m 2 and negative microalbuminuria completing a 3-year follow-up. At baseline, subjects were grouped according to the levels of TG and WC. The primary outcome was the incidence of kidney injury, defined as low eGFR (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m 2) or reduced eGFR (eGFR reduced >25%) or UACR 30 mg/g. Results: Overall, 6.01% developed low eGFR, 11.11% reduced eGFR, 25.98% UACR 30 mg/g, and 3.45% low eGFR and UACR 30mg/g after 3-year follow-up. TG 1.7 mmol/L increased the risk of eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m 2 by 1.44-fold, of UACR 30 mg/g by 32%, and of developing both abnormality by 1.41-fold in model 1; further adjustment for potential confounders factors, the association is slightly weakened in model 2 and 3; WC (90 cm in men and 85 cm in women) were associated with a 1.68-fold higher risk of eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m 2 and a 1.43fold risk of UACR 30 mg/g and a 1.89-fold risk of developing both abnormality in model 1. Further adjustment for potential confounders factors, the association is slightly weakened in model 2 and 3. Conclusions: In a population of Chinese community-dwelling older adults, high TG and central obesity were risk factors for the development of kidney injury over 3 years.
Our meta-analysis supports a relationship between insulin therapy and increased risk of CRC in patients with type 2 diabetes. Because of bias and confounding of included studies, caution is needed when interpreting our results. Further investigations are needed.
Background The hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTGW) phenotype has been proposed to be related to the occurrence and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The ageing trend of the Chinese population continues to intensify, and elderly individuals are at high risk of CKD. The purpose of this study was to investigate the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between the HTGW phenotype and the risk of CKD by following community-dwelling adults aged 60 years and older in Tianjin, China, for 7 years. Methods This study was an observational cohort study conducted between 2013 and 2019. Of 2050 participants aged 60 years and older who underwent an annual health examination in 2013, 1605 individuals with complete data were enrolled in the cross-sectional analysis. Among them, 1271 individuals were observed until 2019. Detailed follow-up records were available for 816 participants, of whom 600 participants without CKD at baseline were eligible for inclusion in the retrospective analysis. The HTGW phenotype was defined as a waist circumference of 90 cm or more and triglyceride concentrations of 2.0 mmol/L or more in males or a waist circumference of 85 cm or more and triglyceride concentrations of 1.5 mmol/L or more in females. CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73m2 and/or proteinuria (urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) ≥ 30 mg/g). Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the relationship between the HTGW phenotype and CKD. Results In 2013, the prevalence of CKD among older adults was 31.03%, and the prevalence of CKD in the HTGW phenotype group was 37.81%. Over a 7-year observation period, 195 individuals developed CKD, with an incidence rate of 32.50%. Statistically significant associations were observed between the HTGW phenotype and CKD in older adults in both cross-sectional surveys and retrospective analyses, with odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of 1.38 (95% CI: 1.03–1.86, P = 0.033) and 2.27 (95% CI: 1.30–3.97, P = 0.004), respectively, after adjustment for confounders. Conclusions In this community-based cohort study, the HTGW phenotype was confirmed to be independently associated with an increased risk of prevalent and incident CKD in older adults aged 60 years and above in Tianjin, China.
Our results suggest preDM was an independent determinant of high PSA levels and support that men with T2DM had decreased PSA levels. Further larger studies are needed.
