Abstract
Background Hypertension is the most important modifiable cardiovascular risk factor among women. Chronic kidney disease (CKD), which affects 1 in 10 reproductive-aged women, increases the risk of hypertension; however, awareness of hypertension in this population is unknown. This study aimed to determine hypertension awareness among reproductive-aged women living with chronic kidney disease. Methods Women aged 18 to 50 years with CKD were recruited from nephrology clinics in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Participants completed a semistructured interview and focused chart review, serum and urine laboratory assessment, and a physical examination that included anthropomorphic measurements and 2 automated office blood pressure readings. Hypertension was defined according to the use of ≥ 1 antihypertensive medications and/or an automated office blood pressure reading of ≥ 135/85 mm Hg. Data were stratified by hypertension status, as well as by awareness, and descriptively presented as mean ± standard deviation, numerical values, and percentages. Results Sixty-three participants with CKD were included. Thirty-eight (60%) participants had hypertension according to study definitions. Of those with hypertension, 30 participants (79%) were aware of their hypertension status. Conclusions Hypertension awareness is relatively high in reproductive-aged women living with CKD. However, hypertension awareness is the critical component for hypertension management, and further work is necessary to optimize reduction of cardiovascular risk in this important population.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have high morbidity and mortality, and the disease progression has a significant impact on their survival and living standards. This research aims to analyze risk factors for CKD stage 1 and provide a reference for clinical decision making. The clinical data and peripheral blood samples of 300 patients with CKD stage 1 were collected retrospectively. Patients were randomly assigned into a training set (n = 210) and a validation set (n = 90). Patients' baseline characteristic levels were subjected to statistical tests for difference. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were utilized to identify risk factors influencing disease progression. Subsequently, a prediction model for disease progression was developed using a nomogram, and the model's accuracy was assessed using the C-index and calibration curve. The results revealed that hypertension, diabetes, and urinary albumin were essential factors in the progression of CKD stage 1. The nomogram was constructed and then the C-index was calculated. The calibration curve was utilized to assess the risk model. The C-index of the training set was 0.75, and the C-index of the validation set was 0.73, suggesting a good predictive ability of the model. The risk model accurately predicted the progression of CKD stage 1, which is of great significance to developing personalized treatment for patients in clinical practice.

Abstract
Background Renalase gene polymorphisms are associated with an increased risk of essential hypertension, chronic kidney disease (CKD), heart disease, diabetes, and stroke. One of these polymorphisms is a common missense (rs2296545) polymorphism, which was reported to be related to hypertension. The aim of this work was to investigate the possible relation between renalase gene polymorphism (rs2296545) and hypertension in patients with CKD patients. Subjects and methods Ninety patients were included in this case-control study: 30 normotensive CKD patients, 30 hypertensive CKD patients, and 30 apparently healthy controls. Genomic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was extracted from peripheral whole blood, and renalase gene (rs2296545) polymorphism was genotyped in all patients and controls by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Odds ratios (OR) and their 95% CIs were calculated. Results We found that the CC genotype and the C allele renalase (rs2296545) were statistically associated with the risk of CKD (OR= 9.4; 95%CI 1.2-7.2; P= 0.036) and (OR= 3.78; 95%CI 1.57-9.08; P= 0.003), respectively. There was a statistically significant difference between the hypertensive CKD patients and the controls regarding the CC genotypes and the C allele, (26.7% versus 3.3%, P= 0.018) and (40% versus 11.7%, P< 0.001) for the CC genotype and the C allele, respectively. The mean values of systolic and diastolic blood pressure were higher in the normotensive CKD patients with the CC genotype compared to other genotypes (P= 0.014 and P= 0.022, respectively) and also were higher in hypertensive CKD patients with the CC genotype when compared to other genotypes (P= 0.001 for both). Conclusion This study demonstrated a statistically significant increase in the renalase gene (rs2296545) CC genotype and the C allele in CKD patients, especially hypertensive CKD.

Molecular Mechanisms of Na-Cl Cotransporter in Relation to Hypertension in Chronic Kidney Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 24:ijms24010286. [PMID: 36613730 PMCID: PMC9820686 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24010286] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2022] [Revised: 12/12/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common clinical disease with an increasing incidence, affecting 10 to 15% of the world's population. Hypertension is the most common and modifiable risk factor for preventing adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with CKD. A survey from developed countries shows that 47% of hypertensive patients over the age of 20 have uncontrolled blood pressure (BP), and the control rate is even lower in developing countries. CKD is both a common cause of uncontrolled hypertension and a risk factor for altered sequelae. In particular, studies have demonstrated that abnormal blood-pressure patterns in CKD patients, such as non-dipping-blood-pressure patterns, are associated with a significantly increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease. The distal convoluted tubule (DCT) is a region of the kidney, and although only 5-10% of the sodium (Na+) filtered by the glomerulus is reabsorbed by DCT, most studies agree that Na-Cl cotransporter (NCC) in human, rabbit, mouse, and rat kidneys is the most important route of sodium reabsorption across the DCT for maintaining the homeostasis of sodium. The regulation of NCC involves a large and complex network structure, including certain physiological factors, kinases, scaffold proteins, transporter phosphorylation, and other aspects. This regulation network includes various levels. Naturally, cross-talk between the components of this system must occur in order to relay the important signals to the transporter to play its role. Knowledge of the mechanisms regulating NCC activation is critical for understanding and treating hypertension and CKD. Previous studies from our laboratory have investigated the mechanisms through which NCC is activated in several different models. In the following sections, we review the literature on the mechanisms of NCC in relation to hypertension in CKD.

Abstract
In recent years, due to the significant increase in hypertension, peptides which are able to reduce blood pressure have gained special interest by scientific research and food industry. Several bioactive peptides with ascertained ACE-inhibitory activity have been found in Parmigiano Reggiano (PR) cheese and/or mixtures deriving from its digestion in vitro, and this may be predictive of itspotential antihypertensive effect in vivo. This study investigated the long-term effect of feeding (PR) cheese on blood pressure (BP) of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). A total of 30 male SHRs, 13 weeks old, were subdivided into 6 groups balanced for body weight and BP, to receive dailydietary supplementation with: 0.1–0.2–0.4–0.6 g PR/rat, captopril, and water. Systolic and diastolic BP were recorded every two weeks, for 10 weeks. Blood samples were collected at the end of the trial. Dietary integration with PR led to a transitory reduction in rats’ pressure in the first 35 days of treatment and pressure decreased in a dose-dependent manner. In the second part of the study, the beneficial effect of PR antihypertensive peptides may have been masked and reduced by the increase in BP of rats linked to the rise in age of animals. No PR derived peptides were detected in rats’ serum. Highlights: Parmigiano Reggiano (PR) cheese led to a transitory reduction in rats’ pressure in the first 35 days of treatment. This effect was PR dose dependent. The highest amounts of PR tested did not increase both systolic and diastolic blood pressures of hypertensive rats.

Abstract
The use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors is an important therapy for various cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension, ischemic heart disease and heart failure. In heart transplant recipients, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors have been demonstrated to be a keystone for the treatment of hypertension with a wide spectrum of pleiotropic molecular effects ranging from improvement of the peripheral vascular system to regulation of the fluid and sodium balance. In addition, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors may be also useful in the prevention of graft failure, cardiac allograft vasculopathy and chronic kidney disease progression. Further tailored multi-center and randomized studies are warranted to confirm the pleiotropic clinical effects of ACEi therapy in HTRs and to support more extended use in daily clinical practice. Finally in the near future, the use of novel pharmacological agents that inhibit the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system such as the neprylisin inhibitor sacubitril should be investigated in heart transplant recipients.

Abstract
Blood pressure is one of the most basic health screenings and it has a complex relationship with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Controlling blood pressure for CKD patients is crucial for curbing kidney function decline and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Two independent CKD cohorts, including matched controls (discovery n = 824; validation n = 552), were recruited. High-throughput metabolomics was conducted with the patients’ serum samples using mass spectrometry. After controlling for CKD severity and other clinical hypertension risk factors, we identified ten metabolites that have significant associations with blood pressure. The quantitative importance of these metabolites was verified in a fully connected neural network model. Of the ten metabolites, seven have not previously been associated with blood pressure. The metabolites that had the strongest positive association with blood pressure were aspartylglycosamine (p = 4.58 × 10−5), fructose-1,6-diphosphate (p = 1.19 × 10−4) and N-Acetylserine (p = 3.27 × 10−4). Three metabolites that were negatively associated with blood pressure (phosphocreatine, p = 6.39 × 10−3; dodecanedioic acid, p = 0.01; phosphate, p = 0.04) have been reported previously to have beneficial effects on hypertension. These results suggest that intake of metabolites as supplements may help to control blood pressure in CKD patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The prevalence of hypertension in adolescents and young adults has increased in part due to the obesity epidemic. The clinical impact and future cardiovascular risk of this underestimated public health problem is an evolving field. RECENT FINDINGS The development of hypertension is predicted by tracking of elevated blood pressure from childhood to adulthood. Young hypertensive individuals have lower awareness, slower diagnosis rates, and poorer blood pressure control than older patients. Increased awareness, appropriate screening, early identification, and individualized treatment approaches for elevated blood pressure could prevent development of hypertension in adulthood and cardiovascular events in later life. The optimal blood pressure management for young adults with a low 10-year risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease of < 10% remains challenging due to lack of randomized controlled trials. Evidence-based recommendations are needed to implement appropriate measures for time of treatment initiation, preferred antihypertensive drug class to be used and optimal target blood pressure level from childhood through young adulthood.

Efficacy and safety of dual vs single renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade in chronic kidney disease: An updated meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Medicine (Baltimore) 2021; 100:e26544. [PMID: 34477114 PMCID: PMC8415955 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000026544] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2021] [Accepted: 06/14/2021] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To lower albuminuria and to achieve blood pressure (BP) goals, dual renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors are sometimes used in clinical practice for the treatment of CKD. However, the efficacy and safety of dual RAAS blockade therapy remains controversial. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library were searched, and random effects model was used to calculate the effect sizes of eligible studies. Potential sources of heterogeneity were detected by meta-regression and subgroup analysis. RESULTS The present meta-analysis of 72 randomized controlled trials with 10,296 patients demonstrated that dual RAAS blockade therapy was superior to monotherapy in reducing the urine albumin excretion, urine protein excretion, and BP. These beneficial effects were related to the decrease of glomerular filtration rate, the increase of serum potassium level, and higher rates of hyperkalemia and hypotension. Meanwhile, these effects did not lead to improvements in short-term or long-term outcomes, including doubling of serum creatinine, acute kidney injury, end-stage renal disease, mortality, and hospitalization. Compared with the single therapy, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) in combination with angiotensin-receptor blocker (ARB) was a better dual therapy than ACEI or ARB in combination with renin inhibitor or aldosterone receptor antagonist in decreasing urine albumin excretion, urine protein excretion and BP, and the combination was not associated with a lower glomerular filtration rate. CONCLUSION Compared with the single therapy, ACEI in combination with ARB was a better dual therapy than ACEI or ARB in combination with renin inhibitor or aldosterone receptor antagonist. Although ACEI in combination with ARB was associated with higher incidences of hyperkalemia and hypotension, careful individualized management and potassium binders may further expand its application (PROSPERO number CRD42020179398).

Abstract
Present study focuses on ameliorative potential of Typha elephantina leave’s aqueous (TE.AQ) extract against Paracetamol (PCM) induced toxicity in rabbits. We fed the male rabbits with 300 mg PCM in alone and in combination with TE.AQ at different doses i.e. (100, 200 and 300 mg/kg body weight) or silymarin (100 mg/kg) daily for 21 days. PCM in alone significantly (P < 0.5) increased serum urea, uric acid, creatinine, total protein, albumin, globulin and blood urea nitrogen. Serum sodium, potassium and magnesium level were high. The glutathione, radical scavenging activity and Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances were significantly reduced. Treatment with TE.AQ at dose rate 300 mg/kg body weight and Silymarin significantly ameliorated all the parameters when compared with PCM administered group. The 100 and 200 mg of TE.AQ showed no significant effects. The histopathological examination confirmed the therapeutic potential of TE.AQ. These results established the presence of natural antioxidants in Typha elephantina leaves.

Efficacy and Safety of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor in Combination with Angiotensin-Receptor Blocker in Chronic Kidney Disease Based on Dose: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:638611.

Abstract
Background: The purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the controversy of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) in combination with angiotensin-receptor blocker (ARB) in the treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) based on dose. Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library were searched to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from inception to March 2020. The random effects model was used to calculate the effect sizes. Potential sources of heterogeneity were detected using sensitivity analysis and meta-regression. Results: This meta-analysis of 53 RCTs with 6,375 patients demonstrated that in patients with CKD, ACEI in combination with ARB was superior to low-dose ACEI or ARB in reducing urine albumin excretion (SMD, −0.43; 95% CI, −0.67 to −0.19; p = 0.001), urine protein excretion (SMD, −0.22; 95% CI, −0.33 to −0.11; p < 0.001), and blood pressure (BP), including systolic BP (WMD, −2.89; 95% CI, −3.88 to −1.89; p < 0.001) and diastolic BP (WMD, −3.02; 95% CI, −4.46 to −1.58; p < 0.001). However, it was associated with decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (SMD, −0.13; 95% CI, −0.24 to −0.02; p = 0.02) and increased rates of hyperkalemia (RR, 2.07; 95% CI, 1.55 to 2.76; p < 0.001) and hypotension (RR, 2.19; 95% CI, 1.35 to 3.54; p = 0.001). ACEI in combination with ARB was more effective than high-dose ACEI or ARB in reducing urine albumin excretion (SMD, −0.84; 95% CI, −1.26 to −0.43; p < 0.001) and urine protein excretion (SMD, −0.24; 95% CI, −0.39 to −0.09; p = 0.002), without decrease in GFR (SMD, 0.02; 95% CI, −0.12 to 0.15; p = 0.78) and increase in rate of hyperkalemia (RR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.65 to 1.37; p = 0.76). Nonetheless, the combination did not decrease the BP and increased the rate of hypotension (RR, 3.95; 95% CI, 1.13 to 13.84; p = 0.03) compared with high-dose ACEI or ARB. Conclusion: ACEI in combination with ARB is superior in reducing urine albumin excretion and urine protein excretion. The combination is more effective than high-dose ACEI or ARB without decreasing GFR and increasing the incidence of hyperkalemia. Despite the risk of hypotension, ACEI in combination with ARB is a better choice for CKD patients who need to increase the dose of ACEI or ARB (PROSPERO CRD42020179398).

Abstract
AIM AND OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of patient-centred self-management programme on mental health, self-efficacy and self-management of patients with hypertensive nephropathy. BACKGROUND If the symptoms of hypertension are not well-controlled, deterioration of renal function will accelerate and evolve into hypertensive nephropathy. DESIGN A randomised single-blind trial. This article follows the requirements of CONSORT statement. METHODS The experimental group (n = 35) after pre-test used patient-centred self-management programme once a week for a total of 4 weeks and the intervention effect was measured after 3 months for post-test. Contrarily, the traditional care was employed for the control group (n = 35). The measuring outcomes included mental health, self-efficacy and self-management. Trial registry is listed under https://clinicaltrials.gov/ with Identifier No. NCT04633993. RESULTS After the intervention, the average score of mental health for the experimental group was 20.79 (SD = 0.82) which was higher than the 19.27 points for the control group (SD = 0.77) and showed a significant difference (F = 8.31, p = .005, partial eta2 = 0.133). In terms of self-efficacy, the average score for the experimental group was 214.13 (SD = 6.40), which was higher than the 189.58 points for the control group (SD = 6.03) and exhibited a significant difference (F = 11.82, p = .001, partial eta2 = 0.197). Regarding self-management, the average score of the experimental group was 75.12 (SD = 2.29) which was significantly higher than the 68.80 points of the control group (SD = 2.43) (F = 11.17, p = .001, partial eta2 = 0.190). CONCLUSIONS In addition to promoting mental health of individual cases, this intervention also increases their self-confidence in disease control and improves their self-management on diseases. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE The intervention provides an effective option for clinical care workers as a replacement for or supplement to the traditional care.

Abstract
Background Soluble urokinase‐type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is associated with cardiovascular risks and poor renal outcomes. However, whether elevated suPAR levels are associated with 24‐hour blood pressure patterns or kidney disease progression in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is unclear. Methods and Results A total of 751 patients with CKD stage 1 to 5 were recruited from CMERC‐HI (Cardiovascular and Metabolic Disease Etiology Research Center–High Risk) cohort study (2013–2018). The relationship of serum suPAR levels to 24‐hour blood pressure parameters and CKD progression was analyzed. The median serum suPAR level was 1439.0 (interquartile range, 1026.2–2150.1) pg/mL, and the mean estimated glomerular filtration rate was 52.8±28.5 mL/min per 1.73 m2 at baseline. Patients with higher suPAR levels had significantly higher levels of office, 24‐hour, daytime, and nighttime systolic blood pressure and nighttime diastolic blood pressure than those with lower suPAR levels. The highest suPAR tertile was associated with an increased risk of a reverse dipping pattern (odds ratio, 2.93; 95% CI, 1.27–6.76; P=0.01). During a follow‐up of 43.2 (interquartile range, 27.0–55.6) months, the CKD progression occurred in 271 (36.1%) patients. The highest suPAR tertile was significantly associated with higher risk of CKD progression than the lowest tertile (hazard ratio [HR], 2.09; 95% CI, 1.37–3.21; P=0.001). When the relationship was reevaluated with respect to each dipping pattern (dipper, extreme dipper, nondipper, and reverse dipper), this association was consistent only in reverse dippers in whom the risk of CKD progression increased (HR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.02–2.01; P=0.03) with every 1‐unit increase in serum suPAR levels. Conclusions Elevated suPAR levels are independently associated with CKD progression, and this association is prominent in reverse dippers.

Abstract
The widely acknowledged homogeneity assumption limits progress in refining clinical diagnosis, understanding mechanisms, and developing new treatments for mental health disorders. This homogeneity assumption drives both a comorbidity and a heterogeneity problem, where two different approaches tackle the problems. One, a unifying approach, tackles the comorbidity problem by assuming that a single general psychopathology factor underlies multiple disorders. Another, a multifactorial approach, tackles the heterogeneity problem by assuming that disorders comprise multiple subtypes driven by multiple discrete factors. We show how each of these approaches can make useful contributions to mental health-related research and clinical practice. For example, the unifying approach can develop a rapid assessment tool that may be clinically valuable for triaging cases. The multifactorial approach can reveal subtypes that are differentially responsive to treatments and highlight distinct mechanisms leading to similar phenotypes. Because both approaches tackle different problems, both have different limitations. We describe the statistical frameworks that incorporate and adjudicate between both approaches (e.g., the bifactor model, normative modeling, and the functional random forest). Such frameworks can identify whether sets of disorders are more affected by heterogeneity or comorbidity. Therefore, future studies that incorporate such frameworks can provide further insight into the nature of psychopathology.

Abstract
Background Aldosterone-induced glomerular hyperfiltration can lead to masked preoperative renal dysfunction in primary aldosteronism(PA) patients. We evaluated whether PA patients had a higher prevalence of acute kidney injury (AKI) after unilateral adrenalectomy. In addition, we identified risk factors for AKI in these subjects. Methods This retrospective study included 107 PA patients, and 186 pheochromocytoma patients as a control group, all of whom underwent adrenalectomy between January 2006 and November 2017 at Yonsei University Severance Hospital. The primary outcome was AKI within 48 hours after adrenalectomy. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify predictors of AKI after adrenalectomy. Results Overall incidence of AKI was 49/293 (16.7%). In PA patients, the incidence of AKI was 29/107 (27.1%). In contrast, incidence of AKI was 20/186 (10.7%) in pheochromocytoma patients. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis both showed a higher risk of postoperative AKI in PA patients compared to pheochromocytoma patients. In addition, old age, diabetes, longer duration of hypertension, lower preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate, high aldosterone-cortisol ratio (ACR) and lateralization index (LI) were identified as independent risk factors for postoperative AKI in PA patients after unilateral adrenalectomy. Conclusion Incidence and risk of postoperative AKI were significantly higher in PA patients after surgical treatment. High ACR on the tumor side and high LI were associated with higher risk of AKI in PA patients compared to pheochromocytoma patients.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at an increased risk of premature mortality, mainly from cardiovascular causes. The association between CKD on hemodialysis and accelerated atherosclerosis was described >40 years ago. However, more recently, it has been suggested that the increase in atherosclerosis risk is actually observed in early CKD stages, remaining stable thereafter. In this regard, interventions targeting the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, such as statins, successful in the general population, have failed to benefit patients with very advanced CKD. This raises the issue of the relative contribution of atherosclerosis versus other forms of cardiovascular injury such as arteriosclerosis or myocardial injury to the increased cardiovascular risk in CKD. In this review, the pathophysiogical contributors to atherosclerosis in CKD that are shared with the general population, or specific to CKD, are discussed. The NEFRONA study (Observatorio Nacional de Atherosclerosis en NEFrologia) prospectively assessed the prevalence and progression of subclinical atherosclerosis (plaque in vascular ultrasound), confirming an increased prevalence of atherosclerosis in patients with moderate CKD. However, the adjusted odds ratio for subclinical atherosclerosis increased with CKD stage, suggesting a contribution of CKD itself to subclinical atherosclerosis. Progression of atherosclerosis was closely related to CKD progression as well as to the baseline presence of atheroma plaque, and to higher phosphate, uric acid, and ferritin and lower 25(OH) vitamin D levels. These insights may help design future clinical trials of stratified personalized medicine targeting atherosclerosis in patients with CKD. Future primary prevention trials should enroll patients with evidence of subclinical atherosclerosis and should provide a comprehensive control of all known risk factors in addition to testing any additional intervention or placebo.

Abstract
Objective: Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) are among the recommended first-line treatment options in patients with hypertension and chronic kidney disease (CKD). This meta-analysis evaluated the effect of ARB on blood pressure (BP) and renal function in patients with concomitant hypertension and CKD with or without diabetes.Methods: Literature search was performed in PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE and BIOSIS to identify parallel-group, randomized controlled trials (≥8 weeks) reporting the effects of ARB on office systolic/diastolic BP (SBP/DBP), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), serum creatinine (SCr), creatinine clearance (CrCl) or proteinuria in adults with hypertension and CKD. Mean difference (MD, generic inverse variance) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) was used to report an outcome.Results: Among the 24 studies identified, 19 evaluated ARB as monotherapy, 4 evaluated ARB as combination therapy and one evaluated ARB both as monotherapy and combination therapy. Median (range) duration of the studies was 12 (1.84-54.0) months. ARB monotherapy significantly (p < 0.01) reduced BP (treatment ≥1 year: SBP [MD: -14.84 mmHg; 95% CI: -17.82 to -11.85]/DBP [-10.27 mmHg; -12.26 to -8.27]) and proteinuria (≥1 year [-0.90 g/L; -1.22 to -0.59]). Results were consistent for combination therapy. In these studies, non-significant changes were observed for eGFR, CrCl and SCr. The impact of SBP changes on eGFR was not significant; however, studies were of a relatively short duration.Conclusion: ARB had a favorable impact on BP and renal parameters such as proteinuria with monotherapy as well as with combination therapy, highlighting their potential benefits in patients with hypertension and CKD. During the short follow-up of these studies, no significant change in eGFR was observed.

Abstract
It is unclear whether ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) behaviors and factors, particularly cumulative exposure to ideal CVH (cumCVH), is associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim of the study was to examine the effect of cumCVH on CKD using the data from the Kailuan study. The study included the 27,970 (21,199 males) of the Kailuan community (China). The participants were 19 to 98 years of age. They were followed in 2008-2009, 2010-2011, and 2012-2013 by the same medical staff that did the initial physical examinations in 2006-2007. Participants were censored on the visit reporting CKD. A CVH score was created based on the seven AHA health metrics. The cumCVH score was CVH1×timev1-v2+CVH2×timev2-v3+CVH3×timev3-v4. In the fully adjusted model, compared with the lowest quintile of cumCVH, individuals in the highest quintile had a 75% lower risk of CKD (95% confidence interval (CI): 66-82%). Every additional year lived with a 1-unit increase in ideal CVH was associated with an 11% (95% CI: 9-13%) reduction in the incidence of CKD. Furthermore, when we excluded each of the six metrics from the cumCVH score in turn, the association was unaffected after the exclusion of individual risk factors. Ideal CVH is associated with a reduced incidence of CKD. Measurements of cumCVH are more likely to reflect the lifetime risk of CKD and possibly of other health outcomes.

Abstract
Purpose Increased variability in blood pressure (BP) is known to be closely associated with the development, progression and severity of renal damage in patients with chronic kidney disease. However, little is known about the association of BP variability (BPV) with the decline of renal function in elderly hypertensive patients with well-controlled BP. We, therefore, aimed to investigate the association between BPV and glomerular filtration rate in hypertensive elderly (age >60 years) and very elderly (age >80 years) male patients with BP controlled within the normal range by antihypertensive therapy. Patients and methods This study involved 484 hospitalized elderly male hypertensive patients with BP controlled within the normal range by antihypertensive therapy. BPV was defined as the SD from mean BP over a 24 h period. Renal function was estimated by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) which was calculated by the Chinese modified Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Equation. Participants were divided into three groups according to their eGFR data. Multivariate linear regression was then used to analyze the correlation between eGFR and BPV. Results The 24 h systolic BP (SBP) variability increased as eGFR decreased. There was no significant difference in 24 h SBP variability when compared between elderly and very elderly hypertensive patients. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that SBP variability demonstrated a negative linear relationship with eGFR (P<0.05) after adjustment for potential confounding factors. Conclusion Among the parameters of 24 h ambulatory BP monitoring, 24 h SBP variability is the only independent risk factor for a decline in renal function in elderly and very elderly male hypertensive patients with well-controlled BP.
