Abstract
A steady rise in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality has been observed in young adults within the last decades. This trend corresponds to an increasing prevalence of traditional cardiovascular risk factors such as obesity and diabetes mellitus type 2 among young adults living in developed countries. Moreover, age-specific risk factors, such as substance abuse, contraceptive medication, and pregnancy-related diseases also correlate with an increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we discuss the available data for young adults on the epidemiology and the rationale for the causality of traditional and newly emerging risk factors of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. We focus on gender-related differences in the exposure to these risk factors, investigate the recent data regarding screening and risk stratification in the young adult population, and describe the current state of the art on lifestyle and therapeutic intervention strategies in the primary prevention setting.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1103251. [PMID: 37234807 PMCID: PMC10206309 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1103251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Obesity often initiates or coexists with metabolic abnormalities. This study aimed to investigate the pathological characteristics and the independent or mutual relations of obesity and metabolic abnormalities with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and associated diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Methods A total of 495 Chinese patients with T2D and biopsy-confirmed DKD between 2003 and 2020 were enrolled in this retrospective study. The metabolic phenotypes were based on the body weight index (BMI)-based categories (obesity, BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m2) and metabolic status (metabolically unhealthy status, ≥ 1 criterion National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP/ATP III) excluding waist circumference and hyperglycemia) and were categorized into four types: metabolically healthy non-obesity (MHNO), metabolically healthy obesity (MHO), metabolically unhealthy non-obesity (MUNO), and metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO). The pathological findings were defined by the Renal Pathology Society classification. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) for ESKD. Results There are 56 (11.3%) MHNO patients, 28 (5.7%) MHO patients, 176 (35.6%) MUNO patients, and 235 (47.5%) MUO patients. The high prevalence of the Kimmelstiel-Wilson nodule and severe mesangial expansion were associated with obesity, whereas severe IFTA was related to metabolically unhealthy status. In the multivariate analysis, the adjusted HR (aHR) was 2.09 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.99-4.88] in the MHO group, 2.16 (95% CI 1.20-3.88) in the MUNO group, and 2.31 (95% CI 1.27-4.20) in the MUO group compared with the MHNO group. Furthermore, the presence of obesity was insignificantly associated with ESKD compared with non-obese patients (aHR 1.22, 95% CI 0.88-1.68), while the metabolically unhealthy status was significantly associated with ESKD compared to the metabolically healthy status in the multivariate analysis (aHR 1.69, 95% CI 1.10-2.60). Conclusion Obesity itself was insignificantly associated with ESKD; however, adding a metabolically unhealthy status to obesity increased the risk for progression to ESKD in T2D and biopsy-proven DKD.

High Triglyceride-Glucose Index with Renal Hyperfiltration and Albuminuria in Young Adults: The Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES V, VI, and VIII). J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11216419. [PMID: 36362646 PMCID: PMC9655420 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11216419] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 10/22/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: High triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a surrogate marker of insulin resistance, is associated with an increased risk of albuminuria in adults. However, the relationship between high TyG index associated with renal hyperfiltration (RHF) and albuminuria among young adults is unclear. Methods: A total of 5420 participants aged 19−39 years were enrolled from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2011−2014 and 2019) and their TyG index levels were analyzed. RHF was defined as eGFR with residuals > 90th percentile after adjusting for age, sex, weight, and height. Albuminuria was defined as urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g Cr. Logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the association between TyG index, RHF, and albuminuria. Results: The mean age was 30.7 ± 6.0 years and 46.4% were male. The prevalence of albuminuria and RHF was higher in the higher tertiles of TyG index. In our multivariable model, high TyG index showed higher risk of albuminuria (odds ratio (OR) per 1.0 increase in TyG index, 1.56; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.24−1.95 and OR in the highest tertile, 1.65; 95% CI, 1.08−2.52). High TyG index was associated with higher risk of RHF (OR per 1.0 increase in TyG index, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.32−1.84 and OR in the highest tertile, 1.73; 95% CI, 1.31−2.30). When participants were divided into with or without RHF, high-TyG index-associated high risk of albuminuria was only observed in those with RHF. Participants with concurrent high TyG index and RHF showed the highest risk of albuminuria. Mediation analysis showed that 54.2% of the relation between TyG index and albuminuria was mediated by RHF (95% CI of indirect effect, 0.27−0.76). Finally, incorporating TyG index into our basic model improved the predictive value for albuminuria only in participants with RHF. Conclusion: High TyG index associated with RHF was the strongest risk factor for albuminuria in this study. Early identification of high TyG index with RHF may prevent future development of CKD in relatively healthy and young adults.

[PMID: 36125132 PMCID: PMC9592766 DOI: 10.1002/hep4.2086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2022] [Revised: 08/04/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
High body mass index (BMI) has been associated with better survival in patients with end-stage kidney disease. Individuals with fatty liver disease (FLD) have a higher risk of chronic kidney disease. It remains unclear whether the survival benefit of high BMI in patients with chronic kidney disease is present when there is concomitant FLD. This study used the data set from the Third American National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and the corresponding survival data. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the effect of BMI on mortality. A total of 12,445 participants were included. The prevalence of FLD was 39.8%. The median follow-up time (with interquartile range) was 22.8 (20.8-24.8) years. During this period, 3749 (30.1%, 14.4 of 1000 person-year) deaths were observed. Among these, 1169 (31.2%) died within the first 10 years. The Cox regression analysis showed that the BMI level was not associated with 25-year mortality in patients with decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 ), but 10-year mortality was significantly lower in patients with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 than in those with BMI < 25 kg/m2 (p = 0.049). Multivariate analysis showed BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 was an independent protective factor for 10-year mortality (hazard ratio [HR] 0.691, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.559-0.856; p = 0.001). This protective effect of higher BMI was lost in patients with FLD (HR 0.884, 95% CI 0.585-1.335; p = 0.557) but persisted in the non-FLD group (HR 0.625, 95% CI 0.479-0.816; p = 0.001). The survival benefit of overweight/obesity for patients with decreased GFR, which was attenuated by the presence of FLD, only existed in the first decade.

Association between Three Waist Circumference-Related Obesity Metrics and Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rates. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11102876. [PMID: 35629005 PMCID: PMC9147861 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11102876] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2022] [Revised: 05/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/17/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Studies that have assessed the associations between obesity and the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) have reported inconsistent results. This cross-sectional study was performed to investigate the associations between three waist circumference (WC)-related obesity metrics (waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), and waist-to-height0.5 ratio (WHt.5R)) and eGFRs. This study included 2133 men and 3443 women who were older than 40 years with eGFRs ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m² from the Korean Multi-Rural Communities Cohort. We calculated the residual body mass index (BMI) to reduce multicollinearity among the obesity metrics and performed multiple linear regression. For both sexes, among the adjusted models, most of the general obesity metrics were significantly associated with eGFRs. Particularly for women, the WC-related and general obesity metrics had a stronger effect on eGFRs in the quartile models that included the BMI and the residual BMI, respectively. When WC-related obesity metrics had a stronger effect than the general obesity metric, for both sexes, WHtR showed a significant impact than WHt.5R and WHR on eGFRs. Reducing multicollinearity had an important role in assessing the obesity metrics’ association with eGFRs. Overall, applying the residual method in further studies might help with evaluating the obesity paradox on renal function.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Growing evidence show the importance of gut/kidney axis in renal diseases. Advances in gut microbiome sequencing, associated metabolites, detection of gut permeability and inflammation provide new therapeutic strategies targeting gut for kidney diseases and particularly for Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy (IgAN). RECENT FINDINGS The diversity and composition of gut flora have been recently deeply explored in kidney diseases. Modulation and depletion of microbiota in animal models allowed the understanding of molecular mechanisms involved in the crosstalk between gut, immune system and kidney. New clinical trials in order to positively modulate microbiota result in improvement of gastrointestinal disorders and inflammation in patients suffering with kidney diseases. SUMMARY The investigation of gut alterations in kidney diseases open new therapeutic strategies. In IgAN, targeted treatments for intestinal inflammation and modifications of gut microbiota seem promising.
