Blood pressure levels and risk of end-stage renal disease in patients with type 2 diabetes who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention: a nationwide population-based study.

ABSTRACT: We investigated the effect of differential blood pressure (BP) levels on future end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and established coronary artery disease with a previous record of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Using health check-up data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service (2015-2016), we analyzed 80,187 T2DM patients with a history of PCI. Patients were categorized by BP levels measured: systolic BP < 120, 120-129 (reference), 130-139, 140-149, and ≥150 mmHg; diastolic BP < 70, 70-79 (reference), 80-89, and ≥90 mmHg. Incident ESRD, defined by disease codes and renal replacement therapy initiation, was the primary outcome. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression assessed adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) (95% confide
