Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with early hormonal modifications. Some of these could be predictive of CKD progression, kidney failure (KF) and/or mortality and may therefore improve the [...]
Background. Copeptin and intact fibroblast growth factor 23 (iFGF23) increase early during chronic kidney disease (CKD) and may be predictive of unfavourable outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate their respective associations with renal and vital outcomes in CKD patients. Methods. We included CKD patients from the NephroTest cohort with concomitant measurements of plasma copeptin and iFGF23 concentrations and isotopic glomerular filtration rate measurement (mGFR). The primary endpoint was a composite outcome including kidney failure (KF) (dialysis initiation, pre-emptive transplantation or a 57% decrease of mGFR, corresponding to doubling of serum creatinine) or death before KF. Hazard ratios (HRs) of the primary endpoint associated with log-transformed copeptin and iFGF23 concentrations were estimated by Cox models. The slope of mGFR over time was analysed using a linear mixed model. Results. A total of 329 CKD patients (243 men, mean age 60.3 [+ or-] 14.6 years) were included. Among them, 301 with an mGFR >15 ml/min/1.73 [m.sup.2] were included in survival and mGFR slope analyses. During a median follow-up of 4.61 years (quartile 1-quartile 3: 3.72-6.07), 61 KFs and 32 deaths occurred. Baseline iFGF23 concentrations were associated with the composite outcome after multiple adjustments {HR 2.72 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.85-3.99]}, whereas copeptin concentrations were not [HR 1.01 (95% CI 0.74-1.39)]. Neither copeptin nor iFGF23 were associated with mGFR slope over time. Conclusion. Our study shows for the first time in population of CKD patients an independent association between iFGF23 and unfavourable renal and vital outcomes and shows no such association regarding copeptin, encouraging the integration of iFGF23 measurement into the follow-up of CKD.
