Non-High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease: Results from the KNOW-CKD Study.

ABSTRACT: As the relation between serum non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (nHDL) level and renal outcomes has never been investigated in patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) yet, we here aimed to unveil the association of nHDL with CKD progression. A total of 2152 patients with non-dialysis CKD at stages 1 to 5 from the KNOW-CKD study were categorized into the tertile (i.e., 1st (T1), 2nd (T2), and 3rd (T3) tertiles) by nHDL, and were prospectively analyzed. The primary outcome was the composite renal event, defined as a composite of decline of kidney function or onset of end-stage renal disease. Kaplan-Meier survival curves analysis demonstrated that the cumulative incidence of the composite renal event was significantly increased in T1 and T3, compared to T2 (p = 0
