Although abnormal diurnal blood pressure (BP) patterns are associated with adverse cardiorenal outcomes, their risks are yet unquantified by BP dipping magnitude. We assessed chronic kidney disease risk across nocturnal BP dipping spectrum among patients with controlled hypertension without prior advanced kidney disease. Ambulatory BP measurements were collected from 995 middle-aged patients with controlled office BP (<140/90 mmHg). The magnitude of dipping was defined as the difference between daytime and nighttime systolic BP divided by daytime systolic BP. Accordingly, patients were categorized as extreme-dipper (≥20%) dipper (10-<20%), non-dipper (0-<10%), or reverse-dipper (<0%). We cross-sectionally analyzed continuous and categorical associations of dipping with albuminuria (urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio ≥30 mg/g) and decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (<60 ml/min/1.73m 2 ), adjusting for office/ambulatory BP, antihypertensive class, body mass index, total cholesterol, fasting glucose, socioeconomic status, and health behavior. The participants (mean age 60.2 years; 52.9% male) consisted of 13.5% (134 of 995) extreme-dippers, 43.1% (429 of 995) dippers, 34.7% (345 of 995) non-dippers, and 8.7% (87 of 995) reverse-dippers. In reference to dippers, odds ratios (95% confidence interval) for albuminuria were 1.73 (1.04-2.60) in reverse-dippers, 1.67 (1.20-2.32) in non-dippers, and 0.62 (0.38-1.04) in extreme-dippers; this reflects significantly lower risk (0.77, 0.55-0.95) per 10% dipping. Likewise, persons presenting reduced and reverse-directional dipping were at higher risk for decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate: reverse-dippers 2.02 (1.06-3.84); non-dippers 1.98 (1.07-3.08); extreme-dippers 0.69 (0.20-1.17), with lower risk (0.74, 0.22-1.02) per every 10%. In short, monitoring nocturnal BP patterns may identify chronic kidney disease risk otherwise overlooked based on office BP.

Background. Though different primary studies have reported the burden of chronic kidney disease among diabetes patients, their results have demonstrated substantial variation regarding its prevalence in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study aimed to estimate the pooled prevalence of chronic kidney disease and its associated factors among diabetes patients in Ethiopia. Method. PubMed, African Journals Online, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Wiley Online Library were searched to identify relevant studies. The I2 statistic was used to check heterogeneity across the included studies. A random-effects model was applied to estimate the pooled effect size across studies. A funnel plot and Egger’s regression test were used to determine the presence of publication bias. All statistical analyses were performed using STATA™ version 14 software. Result. In this meta-analysis, a total of 12 studies with 4,075 study participants were included. The estimated prevalence of CKD among diabetes patients was found to be 35.52% (95% CI: 25.9–45.45, I2 = 96.3%) for CKD stages 1 to 5 and 14.5% (95% CI: 10.5–18.49, I2 = 91.1%) for CKD stages 3 to 5. Age greater than 60 years (OR = 2.99; 95% CI: 1.56–5.73), female sex (OR = 1.68; 95% CI: 1.04–2.69), duration of diabetes >10 years (OR = 2.76; 95% CI: 1.38–5.51), body mass index >30 kg/m2 (OR = 2.06; 95% CI: 1.41–3.00), type 2 diabetes (OR = 2.54; 95% CI: 1.73–3.73), poor glycemic control (OR = 2.01; 95% CI: 1.34–3.02), fasting blood glucose >150 mg/dl (OR = 2.58; 95% CI: 1.79–3.72), high density lipoprotein >40 mg/dl (OR = 0.48; 95% CI: 0.30–0.85–25), systolic blood pressure>140 mmHg (OR = 3.26; 95% CI: 2.24–4.74), and diabetic retinopathy (OR = 4.54; CI: 1.08–25) were significantly associated with CKD. Conclusion. This study revealed that the prevalence of chronic kidney disease remains high among diabetes patients in Ethiopia. This study found that a long duration of diabetes, age>60 years, diabetic retinopathy, female sex, family history of kidney disease, poor glycemic control, systolic blood pressure, overweight, and high level of high-density lipoprotein were associated with chronic kidney disease among diabetic patients. Therefore, situation-based interventions and context-specific preventive strategies should be developed to reduce the prevalence and risk factors of chronic kidney disease among diabetes patients.

Background: Management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients includes efforts directed toward modifying traditional cardiovascular risk factors. Such efforts include optimal management of hypertension together with the initiation of statin therapy. Methods: In this observational study, we determine the modifying effect of statins on the relationship of systolic blood pressure (SBP) goal with mortality and other outcomes in patients with CKD participating in a clinical trial. At baseline, 2,646 CKD patients (estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2) were randomized to an intensive SBP goal < 120 mm Hg or standard SBP goal <140 mm Hg. One thousand two hundred and seventy-three were not on statin, 1,354 were on a statin, and in 19 the use of statin was unknown. The 2 primary outcomes were all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. Results: The relationships of SBP goal with all-cause mortality (interaction p = 0.009) and cardiovascular (CV) mortality (interaction p = 0.021) were modified by the use of statin after adjusting for age, gender, race, CVD history, smoking, aspirin use, and blood pressure at baseline. In the statin group, targeting SBP to < 120 mm Hg compared to SBP < 140 mm Hg significantly reduced the risk of all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 0.44 [0.28–0.71]; event rates 1.16 vs. 2.5 per 100 patient-years) and CV mortality (aHR 0.29 [0.12–0.74]; event rates 0.28 vs. 0.92 per 100 patient-years) after a median follow-up of 3.26 years. In the non-statin group, the risk of all-cause mortality (aHR 1.07 [0.69–1.66]; event rates 2.01 vs. 1.94 per 100 patient-years) and CV mortality (aHR 1.42 [0.56–3.59]; event rates 0.52 vs. 0.41 per 100 patient-years) were not significantly different in both SBP goal arms. Conclusion: The combination of statin therapy and intensive SBP management leads to improved survival in hypertensive patients with CKD.
