Rationale & objective: The management and outcomes of kidney transplant recipients have evolved over the past three decades. This study of U.S patients whose first kidney allograft failed sought to understand long-term trends in subsequent waitlisting, re-transplantation, and all-cause mortality.

Study design: Retrospective cohort study.

Setting & participants: Patients recorded in the United States Renal Data System (USRDS) whose first kidney allograft failed between 1990 and 2019.

Exposure: The 5-year period in which the allograft failure occurred: 1990-1994, 1995-1999, 2000-2004, 2005-2009, 2010-2014, or 2015-2019.

Outcomes: 1) Waitlisting for re-transplantation, 2) re-transplantation, and 3) all-cause mortality following first allograft failure.

Analytical approach: Competing risk survival analyses using the approach described by Fine and Gray were used for the outcomes of waitlisting and re-transplantation. Cox proportional hazards models were used for the outcome of all-cause mortality.

Results: The absolute number of patients whose allograft failed and started dialysis increased from 3,197 in 1990 to 5,821 in 2019. Compared to 1990-1994, the rate of waitlisting for a second transplant increased with each subsequent 5-year period, peaking between 2005-2009 before decreasing again subsequently. The rate of re-transplantation following allograft failure decreased by 9%, 14%, 18%, 7%, and 11% in the sequential 5-year eras; and the mortality rate was 25% lower in 2015-2019 (HR=0.75, 95% CI, 0.72-0.77) compared to 1990-1994. Women had a reduced rate of waitlisting (HR 0.93, 95% CI 0.91-0.95) and lower rate of re-transplantation (HR 0.93, 95% CI 0.91, 0.95) compared to men. Compared to White patients, African-American and Hispanic patients had significantly lower rates of waitlisting, re-transplantation, and mortality.

Limitations: Retrospective data that lacks granular clinical information.

Conclusions: During the past three decades, among patients whose first kidney allograft failed and subsequently initiated dialysis, the rates of waitlisting for re-transplantation increased while the rates of re-transplantation and mortality decreased. Race-, ethnicity-, and sex-based disparities in waitlisting and re-transplantation were observed and warrant further investigation.

理由和目标:在过去的三十年中,肾移植受者的管理和治疗效果发生了变化。本研究对首次肾脏异体移植失败的美国患者进行了调查,旨在了解他们在后续等待、再次移植和全因死亡率方面的长期趋势:研究环境和参与者:美国肾脏登记处记录的患者:美国肾脏数据系统(USRDS)中记录的1990年至2019年间首次肾脏同种异体移植失败的患者:1990-1994年、1995-1999年、2000-2004年、2005-2009年、2010-2014年或2015-2019年:1)等待再次移植,2)再次移植,3)首次同种异体移植失败后的全因死亡率:分析方法:采用Fine和Gray所描述的方法对等待移植和再移植结果进行竞争风险生存分析。对全因死亡率结果采用了Cox比例危险模型:异体移植失败并开始透析的患者绝对人数从1990年的3197人增加到2019年的5821人。与 1990-1994 年相比,第二次移植的等待率在随后的 5 年中逐年上升,在 2005-2009 年间达到顶峰,随后再次下降。异体移植失败后的再次移植率在随后的5年中分别下降了9%、14%、18%、7%和11%;与1990-1994年相比,2015-2019年的死亡率降低了25%(HR=0.75,95% CI,0.72-0.77)。与男性相比,女性的等待率降低(HR 0.93,95% CI 0.91-0.95),再次移植率降低(HR 0.93,95% CI 0.91,0.95)。与白人患者相比,非裔美国人和西班牙裔患者的候选率、再移植率和死亡率明显较低:局限性:回顾性数据,缺乏详细的临床信息:结论:过去三十年间,在首次肾脏异体移植失败并随后开始透析的患者中,等待再次移植的比例上升,而再次移植的比例和死亡率下降。在等待移植和再移植方面,观察到了种族、民族和性别差异,值得进一步研究。

Rationale & objective: Current guidance recommends against the use of metformin in people with advanced kidney impairment despite a lack of supporting evidence. The aim of this observational study was to compare outcomes of patients with type 2 diabetes who continued versus stopped metformin after developing stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) (eGFR <30 ml/min/1.73m2).

Study design: Nationwide observational cohort study.

Setting & participants: All adults with type 2 diabetes and incident stage 4 CKD in Scotland who were treated with metformin between January 2010 and April 2019.

Exposure: Stopping versus continuing metformin within six months following incident stage 4 CKD.

Outcomes: Primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Secondary outcomes included major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).

Analytical approach: Target trial emulation with clone-censor-weight design and marginal structural models fit for sensitivity analyses.

Results: In a population of 371,742 Scottish residents with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes before 30th April 2019, 4,278 were identified as prevalent metformin users with incident CKD stage 4. Within six months of developing CKD stage IV, 1,713 (40.1%) individuals discontinued metformin. Compared with continuing metformin, stopping metformin was associated with a lower 3-year survival (63.7%, 95% CI 60.9 to 66.6 versus 70.5%, 95% CI 68.0 to 73.0; HR=1.26, 95% CI 1.10 to 1.44), while the incidence of MACE was similar between both strategies (HR=1.05, 95% CI 0.88 to 1.26). Marginal structural models confirmed the higher risk of all-cause mortality and similar risk of MACE in patients who stopped versus continued metformin (all-cause mortality: HR=1.34, 95% CI 1.08 to 1.67; MACE: HR=1.04, 95% CI 0.81 to 1.33).

Limitations: Residual confounding.

Conclusions: The continued use of metformin may be appropriate when eGFR falls below 30 ml/min/1.73m2. Randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm these findings.

理由与目标:尽管缺乏支持性证据,但目前的指南建议肾功能损害晚期患者不要使用二甲双胍。这项观察性研究旨在比较2型糖尿病患者在发展到慢性肾脏病(CKD)4期(eGFR 2)后继续使用二甲双胍与停止使用二甲双胍的结果:全国观察性队列研究:研究设计:全国观察性队列研究。研究地点和参与者:苏格兰所有在2010年1月至2019年4月期间接受二甲双胍治疗的2型糖尿病和偶发4期慢性肾脏病成人患者。暴露:在偶发4期慢性肾脏病后6个月内停用二甲双胍与继续使用二甲双胍:主要结果为全因死亡率。次要结果包括主要不良心血管事件(MACE):分析方法:目标试验模拟,采用克隆张量加权设计和边际结构模型进行敏感性分析:在2019年4月30日前确诊为2型糖尿病的371,742名苏格兰居民中,有4,278人被确定为二甲双胍的普遍使用者,并出现了CKD 4期。在出现 CKD IV 期的 6 个月内,有 1713 人(40.1%)停用了二甲双胍。与继续服用二甲双胍相比,停用二甲双胍与较低的 3 年生存率相关(63.7%,95% CI 60.9 至 66.6 对 70.5%,95% CI 68.0 至 73.0;HR=1.26,95% CI 1.10 至 1.44),而两种策略的 MACE 发生率相似(HR=1.05,95% CI 0.88 至 1.26)。边际结构模型证实,停用二甲双胍与继续使用二甲双胍的患者全因死亡风险较高,MACE风险相似(全因死亡率:HR=1.34,95% CI 1.08至1.67;MACE:HR=1.04,95% CI 0.81至1.33):结论结论:当 eGFR 低于 30 ml/min/1.73m2 时,继续使用二甲双胍可能是合适的。需要进行随机对照试验来证实这些发现。

Rationale & objective: Hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors (HIF-PHIs) may offer an alternative erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA) for the treatment of anemia in the setting of CKD. To investigate the efficacy and safety of conversion from long-acting erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta (MPG-EPO) to the oral hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor (HIF-PHI) vadadustat 3-times-weekly versus maintenance on MPG-EPO.

Study design: Phase 3b, open-label, noninferiority trial.

Setting & participants: Multicenter study in United States; 456 patients adults with anemia and dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease.

Intervention: Participants were randomized 1:1:1 either to vadadustat (starting dose: 600 mg thrice weekly), vadadustat (starting dose: 900 mg thrice weekly), or MPG-EPO, for up to 52 treatment weeks and 4 safety follow-up weeks after the end of treatment or early termination.

Outcomes: Primary and secondary efficacy endpoints were the mean change in hemoglobin from baseline during primary (weeks 20-26) and secondary (weeks 46-52) evaluation periods, respectively. Noninferiority was specified as a lower bound of the 95% CI above -0.75 g/dL for the difference in mean change in hemoglobin from baseline. Other efficacy endpoints were the proportion of participants with hemoglobin levels within the target range and the proportions of participants requiring ESA or red blood cell transfusion rescue for anemia during the evaluation periods. Transfusion rates were low and occurred at similar rates across treatment groups (2.7% and 4.0% in the combined vadadustat and MPG-EPO groups, respectively). Primary safety endpoints were any treatment-emergent and serious adverse events (AEs).

Results: After combining the vadadustat groups (600 mg and 900 mg thrice weekly, n=304), vadadustat was noninferior to MPG-EPO (n=152) for both primary (least squares mean treatment difference, -0.33; 95% CI, -0.53 to -0.13) and secondary efficacy endpoints (-0.33; -0.56 to -0.09). Mean hemoglobin concentrations were stable for all groups, except for an initial slight decline in the vadadustat 600 mg group, which stabilized by week 12. ESA rescue for anemia was more frequent in the MPG-EPO group (primary evaluation period, 27.7%; secondary evaluation period, 16.2%) than in the combined vadadustat (14.2%; 7.3%) groups. The incidences of any treatment-emergent and serious treatment-emergent AEs were similar across treatment groups.

Limitations: Potential errors in attribution of AEs as drug related.

Conclusions: Three-times-weekly vadadustat was noninferior to MPG-EPO on their effect on hemoglobin levels without detectable differences in AEs.

理由和目的:低氧诱导因子脯氨酰羟化酶抑制剂(HIF-PHIs)可作为一种替代性红细胞生成刺激剂(ESA),用于治疗慢性肾脏病患者的贫血。研究目的:探讨从长效红细胞生成刺激剂(ESA)甲氧基聚乙二醇-表皮生长因子β(MPG-EPO)转为口服缺氧诱导因子脯氨酰羟化酶抑制剂(HIF-PHI)伐杜司他(vadadustat),每周3次与维持MPG-EPO治疗的疗效和安全性:3b期、开放标签、非劣效试验:在美国进行的多中心研究;456 名患有贫血和依赖透析的慢性肾病成人患者:参与者按1:1:1的比例随机接受伐杜司他(起始剂量:600毫克,每周三次)、伐杜司他(起始剂量:900毫克,每周三次)或MPG-EPO治疗,治疗最长52周,治疗结束或提前终止后进行4周安全随访:主要和次要疗效终点分别为主要评估期(第20-26周)和次要评估期(第46-52周)血红蛋白与基线相比的平均变化。非劣效性是指与基线相比血红蛋白平均变化差值的 95% CI 下限高于-0.75 g/dL。其他疗效终点是血红蛋白水平在目标范围内的参与者比例,以及在评估期间因贫血而需要ESA或红细胞输血抢救的参与者比例。输血率较低,各治疗组的输血率相似(伐杜司他组和 MPG-EPO 组分别为 2.7% 和 4.0%)。主要安全性终点为任何治疗突发事件和严重不良事件(AEs):合并伐杜司他组(600 毫克和 900 毫克,每周三次,n=304)后,伐杜司他在主要疗效终点(最小平方平均治疗差异,-0.33;95% CI,-0.53 至 -0.13)和次要疗效终点(-0.33;-0.56 至 -0.09)方面均不劣于 MPG-EPO(n=152)。除伐杜司他 600 毫克组的血红蛋白浓度最初略有下降,但到第 12 周时已趋于稳定外,其他各组的血红蛋白浓度均保持稳定。与伐杜司他联合治疗组(14.2%;7.3%)相比,MPG-EPO 组(主要评估期,27.7%;次要评估期,16.2%)因贫血接受 ESA 治疗的频率更高。各治疗组的任何治疗突发症状和严重治疗突发症状的发生率相似:局限性:与药物相关的AEs归因可能存在误差:每周三次服用伐杜司他对血红蛋白水平的影响不劣于MPG-EPO,且在AEs方面未发现差异。

Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a characteristic histopathological lesion that is indicative of underlying glomerular dysfunction. It is not a single disease entity but rather a heterogeneous disorder that is an important cause of nephrotic syndrome and kidney failure in children and adults. The aim of this Kidney Health Initiative project was to evaluate potential endpoints for clinical trials in FSGS. This paper focuses on the data supporting proteinuria as a surrogate endpoint. Available data support the use of complete remission of proteinuria in patients with heavy proteinuria as a surrogate endpoint for progression to kidney failure. While substantial treatment effects on proteinuria that are short of a complete remission may also predict the effect of a treatment on progression to kidney failure, further work is needed to determine how such an endpoint should be defined. Fortunately, efforts are underway to bring together patient-level data from randomized controlled trials, observational studies, and registries to address this issue.

局灶性肾小球硬化症(FSGS)是一种特征性组织病理学病变,表明潜在的肾小球功能障碍。它不是一种单一的疾病实体,而是一种异质性疾病,是导致儿童和成人肾病综合征和肾衰竭的重要原因。肾脏健康倡议项目旨在评估 FSGS 临床试验的潜在终点。本文重点介绍支持将蛋白尿作为替代终点的数据。现有数据支持将重度蛋白尿患者的蛋白尿完全缓解作为肾衰竭进展的替代终点。虽然对蛋白尿的实质性治疗效果未达到完全缓解,但也可以预测治疗对肾衰竭进展的影响,因此还需要进一步的工作来确定如何定义这一终点。幸运的是,目前正在努力汇集来自随机对照试验、观察性研究和登记处的患者水平数据来解决这一问题。

RATIONALE & OBJECTIVEAnimal models of kidney disease suggest a protective role for female sex hormones but in humans, some authorities assert that female sex is a risk factor for acute kidney injury (AKI). To better understand the risk of AKI, we studied the strength of association between sex and AKI incidence in hormonally distinct age groups across the life span.STUDY DESIGNProspective cohort study.SETTINGS & PARTICIPANTSAll patients hospitalized in the Montefiore Health System between 10/15/2015 and 1/1/2019, excluding those with kidney failure or obstetrics diagnoses.EXPOSUREMale versus female sex.OUTCOMESAcute kidney injury (AKI) occurring during hospitalization based on KDIGO definitions.ANALYTICAL APPROACHGeneralized Estimating Equation logistic regression adjusted for comorbidities, socio-demographic factors, and severity of illness. Analyses were stratified into 3 age categories, 6 months to ≤16 years, age >16 years - <55 years, and age ≥55 years.RESULTSA total of 132,667 individuals were hospitalized a total of 235,629 times. The mean age was 55.2 (SD 23.8) years. The counts (%) of hospitalizations for women were 129,912 (55%). Hospitalization counts (%) among Black and Hispanic patients were 71,834 (30.5%) and 24,199 (10.3%), respectively. AKI occurred in 53,926 (22.9%) hospitalizations. In adjusted models, there was a significant interaction between age and sex (p<0.001). Boys and men had higher risk of AKI across all age groups, an association more pronounced in the age group >16 years to <55 years in which the OR for men was 1.7 (95% CI, 1.6-1.8). This age-based pattern remained consistent across prespecified types of hospitalizations. In a sensitivity analysis, women older than 55 years who received prescriptions for estrogen had lower odds of AKI than those without prescriptions.LIMITATIONSResidual confounding.CONCLUSIONThe greatest relative risk of AKI for males occurred during ages >16 to <55 years. The lower risk among post-menopausal women receiving supplemental estrogen supports a protective role for female sex hormones.
理论依据与目标肾脏疾病动物模型表明女性性激素具有保护作用,但在人类中,一些权威人士认为女性性别是急性肾损伤(AKI)的危险因素。为了更好地了解急性肾损伤的风险,我们研究了不同年龄组的患者在整个生命周期中性别与急性肾损伤发病率之间的关联强度。结果根据KDIGO定义,住院期间发生的急性肾损伤(AKI)。分析方法广义估计方程逻辑回归调整了合并症、社会人口因素和疾病严重程度。分析分为 3 个年龄组:6 个月至小于 16 岁、年龄大于 16 岁-16 岁、16 岁至小于 55 岁。绝经后妇女补充雌激素的风险较低,这支持了女性性激素的保护作用。

Intensive Home Blood Pressure Lowering in Patients with Advanced CKD. 晚期慢性肾脏病患者的家庭强化降压治疗。

Rationale & objective: Optimal blood pressure (BP) targets in advanced CKD are controversial. More intensive BP lowering in the setting of advanced CKD is thought to be associated with risk of acute kidney injury, hyperkalemia, and ESKD. We aimed to conduct a pilot trial of intensive BP control to determine if lower SBP targets can be safely achieved for patients with CKD through titration of BP medications using in-home measured BP.

Study design: Non-blinded randomized controlled trial.

Settings & participants: 108 patients with advanced CKD (eGFR ≤30 mL/min/1.73 m2) and hypertension.

Interventions: Participants were randomized either to a target home SBP goal of <120 mmHg (N=66) or a less intensive SBP goal (N=42). Antihypertensive medications were titrated to achieve the target home SBP range in the first 4 months of the study and maintained until the end of the study. Home BP was measured using a wireless Bluetooth-enabled monitor that transmitted readings to providers in real-time.

Outcomes: The primary efficacy outcome was the difference in achieved clinic SBP between the two study arms from months 4-12. Safety outcomes included hyperkalemia, a composite outcome of falls or syncope, and onset of need for dialysis or kidney transplantation.

Results: The mean clinic SBP at month 12 was 124.7 mmHg in the intensive SBP group vs. 138.2 mmHg in the less intensive SBP group. Averaged over months 4-12, the achieved mean clinic SBP in the intensive SBP arm was 11.7 mmHg (95% CI 7.5 to 16 mmHg, p<0.001) lower than the mean SBP achieved in the less intensive SBP arm. Primary safety outcomes were not statistically significantly different between the two arms (all p>0.05).

Limitations: Small sample size which may limit our ability to detect clinically significant differences in rates of adverse outcomes; single-center design.

Conclusions: A clinic SBP goal of <120 mmHg is feasible to achieve with the help of real-time home BP monitoring and appears to be safe in this study population with advanced CKD. Larger trials to determine optimal BP targets in advanced CKD and the risks and benefits associated with more intensive BP control are warranted.

理由和目标:晚期慢性肾脏病患者的最佳血压 (BP) 目标尚存争议。晚期慢性肾脏病患者更密集地降低血压被认为与急性肾损伤、高钾血症和 ESKD 的风险有关。我们旨在开展一项强化血压控制试点试验,以确定是否可以通过使用居家测量血压滴定降压药物,安全地为慢性肾脏病患者实现较低的 SBP 目标:非盲法随机对照试验:108 名晚期 CKD(eGFR ≤30 mL/min/1.73 m2)和高血压患者:干预措施:参与者被随机分配到一个目标家庭SBP结果:主要疗效结果为两个研究组在第 4-12 个月达到的临床 SBP 差异。安全性结果包括高钾血症、跌倒或晕厥的综合结果以及开始需要透析或肾移植:结果:第 12 个月时,强化 SBP 组的平均临床 SBP 为 124.7 mmHg,而非强化 SBP 组为 138.2 mmHg。平均到第 4-12 个月,强化 SBP 组达到的平均临床 SBP 为 11.7 mmHg(95% CI 7.5 至 16 mmHg,P0.05):局限性:样本量较小,可能会限制我们检测不良后果发生率的临床显著差异的能力;单中心设计:临床 SBP 目标为
