Association of ideal cardiovascular health metrics with incident low estimated glomerular filtration rate: More than a decade follow-up in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS).

ABSTRACT:

Aims

To evaluate the association between ideal cardiovascular health metrics (ICVHM) and incident low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) among the Iranian population.

Methods

The study population included 6927 Iranian adults aged 20-65 years (2942 male) without prevalent low eGFR [i.e., eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2] and free of cardiovascular disease. The ICVHM was defined according to the 2010 American Heart Association. The multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to calculate the hazard ratios (HRs) of ICVHM both as continuous and categorical variables.

Results

Over the median of 12.1 years of follow-up, we found 1259 incident cases of low eGFR among the study population. In this population, ideal and intermediate categories of body
