The American Heart Association recently released a new cardiovascular health (CVH) metric, Life's Essential 8 (LE8), for health promotion. However, the association between LE8 scores and the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains uncertain. We aimed to explore the association of LE8 scores with new-onset CKD and examine whether socioeconomic deprivation and genetic risk modify this association.
A total of 286,908 participants from UK Biobank and without prior CKD were included between 2006 and 2010. CVH was categorized using LE8 scores: low (LE8 scores <50), moderate (LE8 scores ≥50 but <80), and high (LE8 scores ≥80). The study outcome was new-onset CKD, ascertained by data linkage with primary care, hospital inpatient, and death data. Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to investigate the association between CVH categories and new-onset CKD.
During a median follow-up of 12.5 years, 8857 (3.1%) participants developed new-onset CKD. Compared to the low CVH group, the moderate (adjusted hazards ratio [HR], 0.50; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.47-0.53) and high CVH (adjusted HR, 0.31; 95% CI: 0.27-0.34) groups had a significantly lower risk of developing new-onset CKD. The population-attributable risk associated with high vs. intermediate or low CVH scores was 40.3%. Participants who were least deprived ( vs. most deprived; adjusted HR, 0.75; 95% CI: 0.71-0.79) and with low genetic risk of CKD ( vs. high genetic risk; adjusted HR, 0.89; 95% CI: 0.85-0.94) had a significantly lower risk of developing new-onset CKD. However, socioeconomic deprivation and genetic risks of CKD did not significantly modify the relationship between LE8 scores and new-onset CKD (both P -interaction >0.05).
Achieving a higher LE8 score was associated with a lower risk of developing new-onset CKD, regardless of socioeconomic deprivation and genetic risks of CKD.
美国心脏协会最近发布了一项新的心血管健康(CVH)指标,即生命八大要素(LE8),用于促进健康。然而,LE8评分与慢性肾脏病(CKD)风险之间的关联仍不确定。我们旨在探讨LE8评分与新发CKD的关联,并研究社会经济剥夺和遗传风险是否会改变这种关联。
2006年至2010年间,英国生物银行共纳入了286,908名无CKD病史的参与者。使用LE8评分对CVH进行分类:低(LE8评分<50)、中(LE8评分≥50但<80)和高(LE8评分≥80)。研究结局为新发CKD,通过与初级保健、医院住院和死亡数据的关联来确定。使用Cox比例风险回归模型研究CVH类别与新发CKD之间的关联。
在中位随访12.5年期间,8857名(3.1%)参与者发生了新发CKD。与低CVH组相比,中(调整后风险比[HR],0.50;95%置信区间[CI]:0.47-0.53)和高CVH(调整后HR,0.31;95%CI:0.27-0.34)组发生新发CKD的风险显著较低。与高CVH评分相比,中或低CVH评分的人群归因风险为40.3%。社会经济剥夺程度最低(与最高相比;调整后HR,0.75;95%CI:0.71-0.79)且CKD遗传风险较低(与高遗传风险相比;调整后HR,0.89;95%CI:0.85-0.94)的参与者发生新发CKD的风险显著较低。然而,社会经济剥夺和CKD遗传风险并未显著改变LE8评分与新发CKD之间的关系(两者P交互作用>0.05)。
无论社会经济剥夺和CKD遗传风险如何,获得更高的LE8评分与新发CKD风险较低相关。
