Abstract
Introduction: Although previous studies have investigated the impact of perirenal fat on chronic kidney disease (CKD), there are yet no systematic reviews and meta-analyses to investigate the association between perirenal fat and chronic kidney disease.
Methods: We searched six English electronic databases including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Ovid, Embase, and the Cochrane Library to select clinical studies that reported the relationship between perirenal fat and CKD, and the search period ranged from the establishment of the database to September 10, 2024. Two researchers independently screened the studies and ultimately compared the literature. Stata (version 16 SE; College Station, TX) software was used for statistical analysis.
Results: A total of eight articles that included 2576 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed a significant association between perirenal fat and CKD (95%CI: 0.48-0.65; P=0.00), and no heterogeneity was detected between these two groups (I2=31.06%, P=0.18).Subgroup analysis revealed that whether it is diabetic nephropathy, nephropathy caused by abnormal cardiac function, or primary CKD, perirenal fat is closely related to them.
Conclusion: The results of this systematic review and meta-analysis showed that perirenal fat thickness is closely related to CKD. Clinicians should pay attention to relevant indicators when diagnosing and treating patients with CKD.
期刊介绍:
This journal comprises both clinical and basic studies at the interface of nephrology, hypertension and cardiovascular research. The topics to be covered include the structural organization and biochemistry of the normal and diseased kidney, the molecular biology of transporters, the physiology and pathophysiology of glomerular filtration and tubular transport, endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cell function and blood pressure control, as well as water, electrolyte and mineral metabolism. Also discussed are the (patho)physiology and (patho) biochemistry of renal hormones, the molecular biology, genetics and clinical course of renal disease and hypertension, the renal elimination, action and clinical use of drugs, as well as dialysis and transplantation. Featuring peer-reviewed original papers, editorials translating basic science into patient-oriented research and disease, in depth reviews, and regular special topic sections, ''Kidney & Blood Pressure Research'' is an important source of information for researchers in nephrology and cardiovascular medicine.
