The association between fasting plasma glucose variability and incident eGFR decline: evidence from two cohort studies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Glycemic variability (GV) is developing as a marker of glycemic control, which can be utilized as a promising predictor of complications. To determine whether long-term GV is associated with incident eGFR decline in two cohorts of Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS) and Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) during a median follow-up of 12.2 years.

Methods

Study participants included 4422 Iranian adults (including 528 patients with T2D) aged ≥ 20 years from TLGS and 4290 American adults (including 521 patients with T2D) aged ≥ 45 years from MESA. The Multivariate Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the risk of incident eGFR decline for each of the fasting plasma glucose (FPG) variability measures including standard deviation (SD), coefficien
