Background
Cardiovascular (CV) events are known extra-renal complications of glomerular disease that cause increased rates of hospitalization, morbidity, and mortality. This analysis describes CV outcomes in CureGN, a prospective cohort study of adults and children with biopsy-proven minimal change disease (MCD), focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), membranous nephropathy (MN), or IgA nephropathy/vasculitis (IgA) from 65 US and 6 international sites.
Methods
Multivariable Cox regression was used to estimate associations with first post-enrollment CV event, among those without prior CV events.
Results
The cohort included 2423 participants (566 MCD, 615 FSGS, 546 MN, 696 IgA). At enrollment, median age was 31 yrs (IQR 14-51), with 35% children, 57% male, 13% Hispanic, and 16% Black. At enrollment, median eGFR was 83 ml/min/1.73m2 (IQR 54-103) and median UPCR was 1.2 g/g (IQR 0.2-3.9). Median follow-up was 3.8 years (IQR 2.2-5.1). Overall, 96 participants (22 children, 74 adults) experienced at least one CV event post-enrollment, most commonly arrhythmia followed by heart failure. The cumulative incidence at 1-, 3-, and 5-years post-enrollment was 0.2%, 1.3%, and 1.9%, respectively, for children, and 1.4%, 4.4%, and 7.1%, respectively, for adults. Higher hazard of first CV event post-enrollment was associated with older age (HR=1.1 per 5 yrs), lower eGFR at enrollment (HR=0.88 per 10 mL/min/1.73 m2), and higher UPCR (HR=1.03 per g/g) [Figure]. Glomerular disease subtype was not associated with hazard of CV event (p=0.58).
Conclusion
CV events were associated with older age and kidney disease severity, but not glomerular disease subtype, in this cohort. Further study and longer follow-up will improve understanding of CV risk in patients with glomerular disease and inform practice guidelines.
