Association of Body Weight Variability With Progression of Coronary Artery Calcification in Patients With Predialysis Chronic Kidney Disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

We investigated whether high body weight variability (BWV) is associated with a higher prevalence of coronary artery calcification (CAC) or more rapid progression of CAC in patients with predialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Methods

A total of 1,162 subjects from a nationwide prospective cohort of predialysis CKD were analyzed. The subjects were divided into the tertile (T1, T2, and T3) by BWV. CAC was assessed at the baseline and a 4-year follow-up by CT scan. Rapid progression of coronary artery calcification was defined as an increase in coronary artery calcium score (CACS) more than 200 Agatston units during a 4-year follow-up.

Results

One-way ANOVA revealed that CACS change during the follow-up period is significantly higher in the subjects with high BWV, although CACS at the baseline and 4-year follow-up was not different among the tertile groups by BWV. Logistic regression analysis revealed that compared to low BWV (T1), both moderate (T2, adjusted odds ratio (OR) 2.118, 95% CI 1.075-4.175) and high (T3, adjusted OR 2.602, 95% CI 1.304-5.191) BWV was associated with significantly increased risk of rapid progression of CAC. Importantly, the association between BWV and progression of CAC remained robust even among the subjects without significant BW gain or loss during follow-up periods (T2, adjusted OR 2.007, 95% CI 1.011-3.984; T3, adjusted OR 2.054, 95% CI 1.003-4.207).

Conclusion

High BWV is independently associated with rapid progression of CAC in patients with predialysis CKD.

Project description:ImportanceCoronary artery calcification (CAC) is highly prevalent in dialysis-naive patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, there are sparse data on the association of CAC with subsequent risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in this population.ObjectiveTo study the prospective association of CAC with risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality among dialysis-naive patients with CKD.Design, setting, and participantsThe prospective Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort study recruited adults with an estimated glomerular filtration rate of 20 to 70 mL/min/1.73 m2 from 7 clinical centers in the United States. There were 1541 participants without cardiovascular disease at baseline who had CAC scores.ExposuresCoronary artery calcification was assessed using electron-beam or multidetector computed tomography.Main outcomes and measuresIncidence of cardiovascular disease (including myocardial infarction, heart failure, and stroke) and all-cause mortality were reported every 6 months and confirmed by medical record adjudication.ResultsDuring an average follow-up of 5.9 years in 1541 participants aged 21 to 74 years, there were 188 cardiovascular disease events (60 cases of myocardial infarction, 120 heart failures, and 27 strokes; patients may have had >1 event) and 137 all-cause deaths. In Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for age, sex, race, clinical site, education level, physical activity, total cholesterol level, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level, systolic blood pressure, use of antihypertensive treatment, current cigarette smoking, diabetes status, body mass index, C-reactive protein level, hemoglobin A1c level, phosphorus level, troponin T level, log N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide level, fibroblast growth factor 23 level, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and proteinuria, the hazard ratios associated with per 1 SD log of CAC were 1.40 (95% CI, 1.16-1.69; P < .001) for cardiovascular disease, 1.44 (95% CI, 1.02-2.02; P = .04) for myocardial infarction, 1.39 (95% CI, 1.10-1.76; P = .006) for heart failure, and 1.19 (95% CI, 0.94-1.51; P = .15) for all-cause mortality. In addition, inclusion of CAC score led to an increase in the C statistic of 0.02 (95% CI, 0-0.09; P < .001) for predicting cardiovascular disease over use of all the above-mentioned established and novel cardiovascular disease risk factors.Conclusions and relevanceCoronary artery calcification is independently and significantly related to the risks of cardiovascular disease, myocardial infarction, and heart failure in patients with CKD. In addition, CAC improves risk prediction for cardiovascular disease, myocardial infarction, and heart failure over use of established and novel cardiovascular disease risk factors among patients with CKD; however, the changes in the C statistic are small.
